 TW/CW: mass shooting, gun violence, mentions of abuse, mentions of grief, mentions of Alzheimer's, mentions of rape.

Reading this was painful. Upsetting. I probably won't read another book like it in the future.

Tyler said he "didn't want to be alone anymore". He was never alone. He isolated himself in his grief and then when he successfully pushed ppl away, he turned that grief to anger. I can't feel bad for him though. He wasn't a good person before the shooting. As much as autumn tried to paint him as a saint because he was there for her. he's homophobic, a rap*st, and manipulative/controlling.

This book was extremely sad, but realistic to todays society. The pacing was fast, which I really liked, but I was confused about the characters in the beginning and felt I had to write down who was who and who knew who, etc etc. Overall, I think the book was written very well and emotionally and the only flaw this book had was the random chapters that were not needed and the lack of explanation. Other than that, if you are looking to enjoy an emotional, intense rollercoaster, this is the perfect book for you.

I will never be getting over Tómas’ death.

Every time I read this book, it emotionally destroys me. It is similar to an out-of-body experience. You will cry if you read this, even if you usually don't. It is a deep and sickeningly realistic depiction of what it is like to experience trauma and its effects on the community, including the beginnings of collective community trauma. There is a main character who is a queer domestic violence survivor, and her story is so thought out, so real it is as though she is guiding you through this book. this read hurt my heart and helped me feel.
