This book was almost 5 stars for me, but not quite because it was pretty triggering sometimes. I would definitely recommend it, but would also recommend to definitely look through the tws. I think this book is really special in a way, that probably everyone will see themselves in the book somehow. It articulates thoughts and feelings very well and gives you stuff to think about. This book dives into so many heavy topics, it’s a really good but also difficult read! 
I think the book really showcases how messy, beautiful, confusing and hard it is to be a teenager.
