At first, I thought the pacing was a bit too slow, but it builds up the story beautifully. The ending was perfect, and the book has left me with a new perspective on life.
I think this is a book I will return to, maybe when someone I know has died and I need to get my mind of things. I know that sound sorrowful, but I feel like it’s a safety to have.

as good at this book is, i highly recommend you avoid it if you have a history of depression, self harm, suicidality, or anything similar. this book brought up a lot of things that i thought i’d gotten past.foreverannabelle's review

Nina LaCour knows how to stab me in the heart. I loved We Are Okay and I loved Hold Still. I am always pulled into her worlds and her characters' minds. I love reading books set where I live but there's more to it than that. Her characters are human and flawed and always trying their best to be good people and find a way forward. On a lighter note, I now really wish I had a backyard big enough to build a huge treehouse.
