This book was amazing. It was a whirlwind of what the author's life has been like yet it captured much of what I went through.

In an effort to read more Pulitzer-prize-winning plays I checked this one out. It’s written by the woman who co-wrote In the Heights. It explores the topics of addiction and grief.

Like most plays, I’m sure it works better on stage, especially the chat room scenes.
