This book centers around the very real, very messed up drug war in the Philippines. This story was so raw and real. This is an extremely important book because it taked fiction, we all normally read for fun and adds a completely real heartbreaking element. This is definitely a book that will stick with me in my heart. I also loved that the chapter titles were usually the last few words in the chapter and it would make me think the story is going in one place, then take me somewhere unexpected.
