This is a book I think everyone needs to read. I can’t remember a time when I felt like everything that happened and all the emotions the characters had were actual real. Jordan is frustrating and sometimes annoying and his self deprication is painful. But that’s how people are. They have layers and some of those layers are hard to love... especially when we are talking about teenagers. There was a lot to love about this book, but by far my favorite part was that they felt like my friends. The author knew these characters inside and out, and everything they did made sense. Really beautiful, challenging stuff.
