This book, written in first person point of view (my personal favorite), is a powerful and authentic-feeling debut with so much I loved about it:
1) The writing is poetic, lyrical, concrete, and raw. It grabbed me and from the start and never let go;
2) The friendships and family;
3) The beautiful setting of Australia (someday I want to visit this amazing place);
4) The exploration of sexuality; and,
5) The graceful way the author explored mental illness felt authentic and the best I've ever encountered in young adult literature.
I looked forward to my reading time with this novel and the short chapters made it easy to squeeze in just a little bit more time with Biz and her world. This is one of my favorite books this year.
