Finally got through diving into this incredible YA novel and I'm totally captivated by the literary devices throughout the story - the fall metaphors is deeply significant because it symbolizes Autumn's internal journey and the symbolic tiara sequence made me emotional since it embodies her acceptance of self-worth while the seasonal references perfectly captures the bittersweet nature of adolescence and lost possibilities - truly this coming of age story deserves more recognition for its complex literary elements and the author's craft is truly masterful at intertwining emotional journeys if he had been with me deep dive deeper meanings that speak to the soul.
