I haven't read this book in a decade and it hurts just as much now as it did then. It's a beautiful, heart-wrenching, gut-punch of a story.

It isn't a happy ending, it just is.

This is my first re-read after years of reading it for the first time. I hate that people have to experience this in real life. That people die so young. It's so sad. To be honest, there are points in this story that are hard to read, but this story made me think a lot and feel for people who are sick. No offense meant to adults, but I hate when young people are sick, especially if it's not their fault. It sucks so bad. Overall, I loved this a lot. Thank you, John♥️
