challenging dark emotional sad medium-paced

4.0

This wasn't as good as Sadie but still a worthwhile read. It was a little heartbreaking, a little scary, and even a little hopeful. It does leave me with some questions, but not the kinds that frustrate me.
Read content/trigger warnings beforehand! There is difficult content that could make this unenjoyable if you don't know ahead of time (there are multiple car accidents and as someone who has survived a pretty big one myself, it did kind of trigger me a little. Not enough to deter me from finishing the book tho).
