This book is a really great but hard read. The main character is going through a mental health journey and in turn hurts a lot of people she loves.

This book will stay with me for a very long time. It is such a clever novel about mental illness and trauma thep rippel effect.  It's the first book I have read where the main protagonist is the same age as me which I think made it all the more poignant

Ugh God I LOVED this book, it is probably the best book about the experience of depression I have read, whilst being funny and having an incredible cast of characters. I feel like I am Martha so I am probably biased but I would read it over and over
