My Review
I've never read anything quite like Making It. The book is compiled of prose, poetry, and dialogue between a man and woman. Making It spans their 30 year relationship in just 63 pages and the author made it work! Readers ride the wave of their initial meeting, sleeping together for the first time, saying "I love you," questioning things, getting pregnant, marriage proposal, and the comfort of silence.
It's a quick, but fulfilling read. You'll laugh and you'll swoon. This is 5 stars.
