This book was breathtaking in the worst ways possible. Please do not make the mistake I did and read this when struggling with the topics this book discusses. This book caused me to relapse at least twice and almost relapse per like 10 pages. This book was beautifully written and if I wasn’t struggling myself it would’ve gotten a higher rating.

Such a good book! I would definitely recommend it.

I wish there was a second book to talk more about Riley! Charlie had such good development as well.
