“The Realm of Possibility” by David Levithan | Book Review
Book Review | Rating - 4/5 | Genre - Young Adult/Poetry If I remember correctly, this was a book that I came across during my years at university.

One of the main reasons I never read this book is that I'm not a huge fan of classic "naturalism" books. They always come across rather dull to me and sometimes don't make a lot of sense.
