A story  that becomes more hauntingly beautiful if you’ve been to the dark place. While it does kind of have a rushed ending, and can seem a bit shiny after so much grit,, isn’t that life? Luck goes both ways , and can run up or out all at once. Definitely recommend.

I think if this book would have gone down a different path in the last half, I would have enjoyed it more.

3.5

ending felt rushed and was a bit too focused on the relationship between Charlie and Riley i think. also why was everyone just okay with the fact that hes 27 dating a 17 year old ????!??!
