I liked the story, but I did find it to be a bit predictable.

really really liked this one, mostly for the plot though and not as much for the writing. i think it is a wonderful topic matter and think it was carried out well

A very sweet, uplifting book. I was impressed with how realistically severe depression and the thoughts it comes with were portrayed, and how the character development felt very natural and credible. Moreover, I really enjoyed the author‘s style of writing dialogue - it was charming, witty and fast-paced.

The only reason I didn‘t give 5 stars was because towards the end, it got a little too sappy and cheesy for me.
