The book has a trigger warning that I normally avoid so it made me cry and not feel good, but apart from that, for me, it is perfect. 
I loved it. I loved the plot, I loved Pip, I loved Ravi, I loved it❤️❤️❤️

I wouldn’t necessarily suggest this book to anyone, I wouldn’t read it again, but I didn’t totally hate it. The whole premise was so unrealistic, and I don’t know a single public high school in America that would have a capstone project to graduate. There were moments where I was like oooh ok I like where this is going but the author would wrap that storyline up in the next chapter and move on from it entirely. Just overall felt forced and unrealistic.
