I’m going to be honest, as someone struggling with mental health as well, I was terrified that this book will trigger me so badly.. but it didn’t! it proved that i’m not alone, we are not alone! 
The Story of Charlie Davis is heartbreaking, moving but mostly beautiful! I was captured by this story and i’m deeply touched! In a way i feel heard! Thank you Kathleen Glasgow!

Yet i wouldn’t recommend it, if you’re actually struggling rn and are scared it’s gonna trigger you! Get help first! You’re loved <3

Moderate: Death of parent and Eating disorder

Look into the triggers of this book, it goes into detail about self harm and has caused many people to relapse.
