This book was so intense. I found it to be extremely insightful and beautiful. Alice has a way of writing that is easy to follow and covers such deep and complex topics. This book was rich with existential thoughts, creative character building, and interesting plot. 
It’s so insane to be that this was the first book Oseman wote!
