This was so heavy and so beautiful all at once.
I think I had tears in my eyes more often than I didn’t. What a gorgeous story.

These characters and the stories behind each one will pull you in and never let go. The best found family story I’ve ever read..Louisa, Ted, “the artist”, Joar, and Ali - I love you and I believe in you.

Not to be dramatic or anything but I feel like having a friendship like the ones in this book is the greatest thing that can happen to a person.

DID NOT FINISH: 4%

The teen angst and redundant writing got on my nerves quickly.
