It was a nice story, and it had nice enough characters, but that's just it. That's all the story ever was. It was just nice. 
 But nice in a way that it was lacking. 
 I got pretty excited when my friend told me that this book had poetry in it, but got really disappointed when I finally read the book. The poetry inside looked like they were the bullshit taken straight out of Hallmark cards--and not even the good kinds of Hallmark cards. 
 This story was still pretty well-written, though, and I appreciate that it was. I was just thrown off by the whole poetry thing.
