Poet X

It definitely wasn't my favourite. Maybe my expectations were too high because of all of other reviews. The style used wasn't something I'd want to try again. I understand that it was supposed to resemble spoken poetry but it didn't work for me. Listening to the audiobook - it was very tiring. Again, maybe the spoken poetry isn't my cup of tea. As to the plot, it was very uncomfortable for me to follow the mother-daughter relationship. I am fortunate enough to not relate and mother's toxicity was too much. The story wasn't very compelling and I haven't found myself invested in what happens next at any point. Maybe except for twin's parts. Unfortunately, from the very start I had a feeling I'm listening to a story written by a 13-year-old. That refers especially to messages. I understand it was supposed to be colloquial but I prefer using different language in written stories. All in all, I get why a lot of people like this book. It's unique. It's filled with emotions. I see potential but execution leaves a lot to be desired.

I enjoyed it. It was a good read. I still don't really like poetry tho.
