I don't know where to start with this.
The first 300 pages of this book I loved, it was looking like a 4☆ read, it was a nice lighthearted read, it got me out of a reading slump, and I could tell the author was talented.
After page 300 tho-
I got angry
Like ridiculously raging angry
Whyyy did the author ruin it?!?!
It's so annoying anger isnt something I want to feel about a book but I'm so angry I can't believe it.
I am not a fan at all of the Spoilersick but then not actually sick just been lied to forever storyline of a book, and I can't for the life of me understand why so many authors think it's a good thing.
This hit so hard for me because it's something that •could• happen to me so I just felt my life in her place and I thought what it would be like if Spoilermy mam suddenly told me I didnt have the conditions I've been told i have
All this just for Spoilerher mams grief?? I know her mam had issues and she needs to see therapists and get better, but I just can't see why that was turned around and made into a book idea
Although this was such a good book at the start, I am so disappointed in the ending and I feel like this book was a waste of my time.
Wouldnt recommend unless you are a fan of the Spoilerone day being told you've been lied to your whole life and missed out on so many opportunities and basically had your life ruinedtrope.
Someone tell me I'm not the only one thinking this x

I sped through this book in one day cause I literally couldn't put it down! I was so invested in the story that I couldn't stop thinking about it whenever I was forced to take a break to do a chore or something. 
the ending was such a big shock for me!

The domestic abuse sub-plot is fairly mild, as in we only hear shouting and there's one fight witnessed outside. The book talks a bit about people having sex, but it's not *too* descriptive

The structure of the book is delightfully unique! Little snippets of the main character’s notebook provide a sense of personal connection with her. To understand the story completely, read The Little Prince and Flowers for Algernon first. Then you’ll understand the context which they are mentioned.
