this book was good, made me very emotional cause I relate to it and the epilogue talking about the hospital really did envision what it feels like to be a psych patient.

I've wanted to read this book for ages but I don't think I really ever understood how big of a cult classic it was and how big of an impact it has had on pop culture. It was fascinating to bump into phrases that I keep seeing and hearing all over social media that originated from this story. While it wasn't the most groundbreaking book I have ever read in my life, I think it would have been if I had read it fifteen years ago when I was still a teenager and topics that this book touched on were less explored in YA.

Why do I somehow feel like I really loved this book but it’s also just meh? Maybe it’s something to do with why I started it and then put it down and didn’t pick it back up for maybe two weeks but when I picked it back up I almost couldn’t put it down and finished reading it in under a day. Charlie might be one of the realists and most relatable teenagers I’ve ever read about and I honestly think I’m not emotionally ready to fully grasp that yet so one day I’ll reread this book and I think then I’ll be changing the review to 5 stars.
