Before reading this book, I advise people to read the triggers. 

I absolutely loved this book. The subjects, context, and content were written so well. There were so many heart aching moments which made me emotional, but there were nice moments too. I feel the author got the balance correctly, especially for the topics based in the book. 

I was definitely routing for Dean in this book.
