This book is a constant favourite of mine I have listened and read it multiple time. This book is extremely relatable and it embodies so much emotion and it really makes you think about what u r doing in ur life. This book is for the people who don’t feel life anymore and for the people who need a comfort character who relates to you.

Alice's books always leave me in awe. i think about them for days. they have big impact. she just perfectly describes teenage life and problems. even the serious topics are discussed in a way that helps me feel safe.

i think the characters are made to be relatable and there's not just good or bad, characters show internal conflicts, and they aren't perfect.
