This book is one of the most relatable and accurate depictions about depression, however the ending felt so abrupt and the conclusion was too fast for a very slow book.

idk it was refreshing and entertaining but not actually good

i hate the narrator but it's actually hilarious that they decided to kill reva in 9/11. one of the most absurd and random last pages I've ever read and i fully cackled about it

very pretentious, tries to be a "good for her" narrative with an antagonistic figure, but fails to do so. the reader is left with one part of the prism inflated with sex, drugs, and 9/11.
