Meh. ⁣
⁣⁣
⁣I took these pictures eighteen months ago and finally got around to reading You Are Not Alone this week. Can I get a pat on the back for that please?! ⁣
⁣⁣
⁣As for the book, I listened to it at max speed because I was BORED. You’ve got unlikeable characters, unrealistic and ridiculous coincidences and a plot that just wouldn’t wrap itself up. ⁣
⁣⁣
⁣I rated it three stars, but upon further reflection that’s probably way too generous!
