I am reviewing three books that I read earlier this year and took my sweet time reading/listening to. Here we go:
![Amazon.com: The Poet X (9780062662804): Acevedo, Elizabeth: Books](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81dM0cyRrFL.jpg)
The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo
Format: Ebook
More info: Goodreads
I was very hesitant to read this book. I am not of a poetry person. I can only take a few poems at a time but I can never find myself engrossed in a book written in this format. However, this one completely grabbed me!
I fell in love with the main character, Xiomara. The way she described her emotions and the events in prose really called to me. I found myself feeling frustrated, sad, happy, inspired, and hopeful. I had no idea I was going to be so emotional with this book. I rate it: 5 stars
