2.5

I was disappointed. This book had a lot of potential and didn't utilise it well. It's essentially looking at all the What If scenarios in the main characters life after she attempts suicide. It's just very after-school-special vibes and does not really feel genuine at any point. I personally feel like you're going to deal with something as heavy and serious as suicide, you should do a better job than this.

This book took me forever to finish. I really wanna rate it a 3.5 but 4 stars will do. It was good but the story got long and boring in the middle with all the scenarios and side stories.I just wanted to see how Nora was going to change this thing for the better. Loved the ending and how all the side stories were wrapped up. Enjoyed the quotes the most! Gotcha thinking bout perspectives of life. Good read to jump off the summer.
