I really enjoyed this story, it's a wonderful young adult semi-fiction. It has themes of love, loss, suicide, friendship all told through the protagonists perspective via letters to an anonymous recipient. It discusses some relatable high school experiences, and especially the experience of transitioning into adulthood.

We are infinite . The most iconic quote in this book.This is an amazing book and is like a young high schoolers version of The Catcher In The Rye .But Charlie has hope and wants to be the best friend anyone can have .He try’s his best to make friendships work and does this out of love.

This book was almost 5 stars for me, but not quite because it was pretty triggering sometimes. I would definitely recommend it, but would also recommend to definitely look through the tws. I think this book is really special in a way, that probably everyone will see themselves in the book somehow. It articulates thoughts and feelings very well and gives you stuff to think about. This book dives into so many heavy topics, it’s a really good but also difficult read! 
I think the book really showcases how messy, beautiful, confusing and hard it is to be a teenager.
