this is the first book i’ve read for personal enjoyment in over a year. i read excessively growing up, but phased out of it once i hit high school. i am glad this is the book i chose to read after my book-less period. 

i really connected with the story, as i lost my best friend at the end of my senior year as well. it really captured the process in which friendship fades away and that it’s not so black and white. there’s this intricate weaving that can make it hard to forgive and mend once it’s been broken. 

i think the weak points of the novel was the repetitive descriptions of some of the actions, as well as the writing being more tell than show. though the writing style is definitely targeted towards 14-16 year olds and not me, a 19 year old english major.
