this book felt like the kind of pain that manifests in your body as a small little jolt you can't place, the kind that bothers you a few times a day and slightly annoys you. until it develops into this massive neverending streams of pain you feel everywhere in your body, the kind that you can't even move without hurting. then it becomes this dull ache you learn to live with, some days are okay, some bad, some worse. nevertheless, the pain is there and it's a part of you now. so it goes without saying that this book was something that i absolutely loved.

kinda wanted fr*nk to suffer more but idk. because tell me why is the man the only person who's future is foreseeably happy? /s. all this aside, really loved seeing the growth in the characters (zoe's was one of my favorites) and while i did feel like it was a bit rushed because literally one moment they were all so fucked and the next they were all healthily processing their emotions, i think that was on purpose because we were introduced to them as what may have been the worst versions of themselves.
