Yaser and Yasmeen

Recently I was asked to read and review a very unusual book called Yaser and Yasmeen. I will be the first to admit it is not a book I would have picked up to read myself, but variety is the spice of life, they say, and this is certainly a spice I hadn't tried before. This book is written completely in poetry. Disclaimer here: I normally don't like poetry. In fact, other than some Edgar Allen Poe, I'd say I really just don't like it. But, this book is not written in a heavy lyrical style
