I struggled a lot with this book. Certain aspects of the plot were handled really well, and I think the relationship was good - but so much of it just seemed creepy to me. And the last chapter was frustrating, but I guess it worked in context.

So good! I’m happy that I finally read Dear Ava, after seeing so many people rave about it. The book deals with very heavy topics, and does so very well. It was an intense book that grips you from the start, both Ava’s and Knox’s stories.
