On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
Ocean Vuong
lilexplorer wrote a review...
Started reading that expecting a typical dark academia, academic weapon aesthetic or something and ended it being absolutely devastated.
It’s not even that it hit that hard, I was almost expecting how the events were turning but some chapters felt so realistic they left me thinking and feeling empty about the reality I live in.
It’s so on point with what’s happening in the world, corruption and stuff, hopefully some will find it motivating or gain some more insight and food for thought?
All characters also felt really real to me and I feel like I’ve seen them all out in the real world. The writing also helped very much built the in-universe atmosphere and transported me successfully every time I opened the book.
SO ITS A MUST RECOMMENDATION FROM ME YEP grap your highlighters, tissues, some brain to analyze the text and you’re off to go!
