Is a poetic way of storytelling.
The first look sets the scene
Of Eliana Elizabeth Montgomery-Hofstein.
who is called Splash because of her weight.
Spliiiish. Splaaaash.
And who sets Fat Girl Rules
to avoid attention.

By now, YA told in verse is not a new concept. Lisa Fipps' novel tackles the themes of body positivity, bullying, and growing pains. I'm not 100% sold on the story yet, but I'm also not a huge fan of poetry.
