This book cured my inner teenager :) 

Would’ve very much been a 5-star read but the laughter-heavy, dialogue-filled pages brought it down. Seriously, am I that melancholic or is everyone in this book laughing at anything and everything? And I’m still on the fence about that ending. Will be picking up the sequel though!

This book fucking ruined me. What an ABSOLUTE callout. But my god was it beautiful. Absolutely wonderful. So sweet and made me think a lot, which i really enjoyed. Beautiful work, kinda felt like torture but in the best way possible. I have never felt Such things over a book before. God damn.
