Ramblings of a Diva Booknerd

I am officially in love with Tahereh Mafi. Tahereh isn't a writer, she's a storyteller, she's a poet, she creates entire worlds where the reader can live, she's brilliant. I've never come across an inner monologue even close to that of the character of Juliette. It's purely poetic. Taherah can describe one emotion with paragraphs of random descriptions, shrieking tea kettles, being able to capture minutes ticking by in your pocket. It's quirky and poetic and captures Juliette with an amazing inner voice. That originality wont sit well with everyone, but the strike through text, the short clipped lines and poetic descriptions are incredible. I've never read anything remotely similar. There are no awkward pauses and it's written with such beauty.

I read the entire book in one sitting, I devoured it and couldn't put it down.

I'll just add a footnote. Warner... Up down incident?



Giggity giggity indeed baby!
