Feeling sorry for Celia is an incredible coming of age epistolary novel about teen relationships, especially friendship. It’s hilarious, emotional and completely unique, written in Jaclyn Moriarty’s unique writing voice. The characters are some of the most lovable, unique people I’ve read and the story is woven perfectly. There were some sexual references and a suicide attempt by a character but nothing graphic. This book is a treasure.
