This book was everything I expected and more. As someone who was a complete nobody in high school I related so much to both Evan and Connor. I understood why Evan did what he did. Because already being at the bottom of the food chain you don’t really want to feed more fuel for the bullies to use against you. I knew from seeing the trailer to the movie I needed to read the book and I knew I was going to cry and be slightly trigger from my rough high school days. I can’t wait to see how well the movie does at remaking this amazing book!

I found the writing dry and, without Ben Platt's voice, Evan was not endearing to me at all. My favorite parts ended up being Connor's points of view. However, the end of the epilogue was gorgeous.
