Ruben Rade Rade থেকে Sacama, Sácama, Casanare, Colombia
This was really good. Some adult language that turned me off a little, otherwise I think I might have given it 5 stars. Well written, a great story. I want to read another one from this author.
2.5 Interesting characters and an interesting period of time. I kind of found it jarring to be a book set abroad, along with being a book in verse, and then also set historically. Almost too many elements going on. And it was way too long. That said, I didn't put it down, and the writing's pretty darn good. Not sure I buy the male poet, though, given how reluctant he was to write in the first place. Alas, I do see the teen readers who would like this one quite easily!
