yes, i like the uniqueness this novel has into conveying the story in words you have to think about more. emotions are hard to convey to begin with so using more figurative forms appeal more to the audience,

I feel as though this conveys the story well, but I think it would be more interesting if the poems were more abstract and metaphorical.

I likes the kind of poetry out of the dust had and I think the free verse, because it helped the book as a whole go together instead of individual poems

when was reading it it felt less like poetry and more just like a normal story

I thought it was a good choice of style because it was like a story but just broken up into parts. It was effective because the poems didn't have a secret message that you have to figure it out.

Free verse poetry, for me, is easier to read and understand what is going on or what the poem is about. It worked well for the storytelling aspect of the story, and explained Billie Jo's emotions adequately.

I liked both the novel and the poetry. I think the free verse showed Billie's emotions really well. Whatever the author wanted to say was said.

I think that the poetry compiled into a novel was a good idea to portray this era. Not amazing but good ig. the free verse didn't limit them it gave variety to the
novel.

Throughout the novel, I really appreciated the figurative language, the imagery, and how the author developed the character's personality.  I think it actually kind of ironic but represented her well because unlike in real life, in this structure she can be free.

I really liked the novel and this type of poetry. It was like a story and a poem mixed together. It made it easy to understand what was happening and to picture the story.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it was a good selection of ways to use figurative language but I think that it was a little boring and the points were kinda dragged on instead of building up a climax.

I enjoyed reading this style of poetry. I thought it was very effective in expressing Bille Jo's emotions. If this novel had been written in paragraph format the author would not be able to bend the writing to show the person billie jo is.
