This book is so emotional, but can be regarded as hopeful for those who have struggled with depression or self harming. I fell in love with it immediately and cried my heart out many times. If you like emotional and sad books, like me, this is for you. If you prefer more happy and lighthearted books then it might be best to find something else. But I give this book a 10000000000000/10

rachelmack__'s review against another edition

1.5

Definitely not going to reread this. I understand it is a YA book and Kathleen Glasgow wanted to show the pains of being a young person with a difficult past, but there is so much wrong in the book.

The main character is, in my point of view, a self-pity person throughout the entire story. She falls in love with a man that’s almost 10 years older than her and he uses and emotionally abuses her and call it love.

The main reason why i do not like this book is that young women are seeing this abusive story and falling in love with it, or falling in love with the character, wishing they were in her place. 
I only gave it a 1,5 because the ending was the only part that I read without wanting to kill a man.
