An unfortunate combination of shallow and contrived YA vibes (not present in all YA literature, of course), unlikeable white sadboy protagonist (who may have gone through some bad stuff, but otherwise just exhibits the standard white sadboy behaviour) and writing style that isn’t terrible but also does nothing to pull me in.

I suppose the topic has merit, and I can imagine teens reading this and finding solace in not being alone in the mess that’s growing up. But I’m no longer the target audience and the text has very little to offer me.
