Book:
ALL THE THINGS WE NEVER SAID by Yasmin Rahman
Review:
4.2 ⭐
I'm generally a murder-myster-thriller type of reader---but that doesn't stop me from straying to the sappy-emotional type genre. When I clicked on ALL THE THINGS WE NEVER SAID, I had an idea about what I was getting into. Mental health is a weird thing that people struggle with, and I like how the author took that concept and added to it. Mehreen, Cara, and Olivia are all struggling in their own way, brought together at the worst of times, their lives change. Foe the better, which is great, and the the utter weirdness started. (creepy calls, disappearing apps). It was full of so many different things. This book was thrilling, emotional, raw, and real all wrapped up into one. The representation of mental health(how it affects people in different ways) was something that books need more of. I would recommend this for anyone who's going through things, or anyone who wants to understand the struggle.
What I Liked About It:
*how real it was
*the representation

This was a very very well written book that portrayed mental illness in such a realistic way without ever playing it up to feed the plot.
