Okay, this is my second Elizabeth Acevedo book and it won't be my last – I'm hoping to read With the Fire on High later this year but we will see. I will admit, I liked The Poet X more, but this book is still amazing. 

So many emotions, beautiful words, and amazing characters. I can't pick a favorite between Camino and Yahaira because both sisters are amazing in their own way. The audiobook really brought forth their emotions and once again the narration is wonderful and so fun to listen to. This book really revolves around grief and how to deal with our emotions about people who have died– and how to move forward. 

Seriously, give this one a listen!
