This book made me dissociate in a good way. The ending is terribly sad and yet hopeful and positive, and throughout it the whole book made me think differently about the world a little bit. The only thing holding back a 5 star is the writing style in a series of letters, it isnt bad necessarily but sorta made it hard to get in to in the beginning and sometimes i found it challenging for some reason. For now this is my favourite book, because it’s the last one I read. 💕

P.S: this book tackles a whole lot of traumatic events, sexual abuse, drug abuse, and others. Be aware of that.

This book is brilliant! Truly and spectacularly moving. Charlie is someone you want to reach into the pages and just hug and let him know it will be okay. Charlie, Sam and Patrick are well written characters you wish you were friends with yourself and are sad when the book is over and you realize you are not.
