Always remember: You are not alone.

This book is very well written. It’s awe-inspiring. The feelings and emotions are described perfectly.

HOWEVER! Before you read this make sure you are aware of the topics it covers and how it does that. This book is a living, breathing trigger. Make sure you are in the right headspace to read this, especially if you have firsthand experience with the topics discussed in Charlie’s story.

I can't believe this book as been sitting on my shelf for so long, I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. I can't recommend this book enough to every single person I meet, because honestly it would takes a thousand years to give you all my thought on this book.

But it's just so well written and heart retching that I think half my thoughts on this book would just be tears and sobs. 

I would also like to say while this book does not go into very graphic detail of certain things mentioned in the content warnings I still warn you it's better to be safe then sorry. And just not risk reading or even listening to this book if you think you could be heavily triggered by anything in this book.
