AME solitario, si amaba a tori ahora la amo más, desde que la conocí me sentí identificada con ella, me dio mucha alegría que al final ya no se sintiera sola, espero todo mejore en su vida y experimente mucha alegria con las personas que la aman, alice gracias por este libro hermoso te quiero mucho <3

i love alice oseman books. this was fun

“my name is victoria spring. i think you should know that i make up a lot of stuff in my head and then get sad about it. i like to sleep and i like to blog. i am going to die someday.”

scrambled musings that i'm too tired to organize:
- there's no way tori's not autistic
- michael's character development was actually amazing
- how was this written by a 17 year old??
- the language was definitely way too much and felt gratuitous and uneeded
- why am i like this, by orla gartlund, is definitely tori's theme song
- the ed rep?? omw?? it was actually so well done??
- unpopular opinion but nick and charlie seem to have a bit of a weird power dynamic that borders on being infantilizing
- i would have liked if this was longer and if we got more time with the characters tbh
- i also really liked how none of the lgbtq characters felt like they were there for diversity's sake. they all were fleshed out, and were genuinely interesting characters who weren't just token gay characters

cws: suicide ideation, an allusion to a suicide attempt, self harm, anorexia, ocd, arson, multiple lgbtq characters, underage drinking, brief mentions of sex, frequent strong language

I needed this book, Tori kinda reminds me at my 13-16 yo version. I like the way Alice treats mental health, without romanticize it, just how it is, and i love the representation of a bad mental health on teenagers.
I love the end, the not cliche story, Tori’s and Michaels friendship. I just love everything about the book.
