Influenced by the avant-garde, his poems show everyday life and describe simple ideas and emotions with an ironic tone.

This book is so sad and I was basically howling at all the angst I know Rachel is in store for in the rest of the book series. This is really highlighting the kinds of choices the characters are making in order to handle the responsibilities of animal morphing power and trying to fight an alien invasion by themselves/5().
