"did you hold them in your hands, cradle them between the lines of your palms, and let them remind you how ill you are, how sick, how desperate?"

— the end of this book kinda hit hard especially during a break up as a girl with a personality disorder 😭 but with that being said, i wish this book only focused on regan. i wasnt involved with or attached to aldo really at all?? maybe im too much of a man hater but i couldnt bring myself to care during his segments. with that, some of the style and writing felt a little corny, and the descriptions of weed was like from a tumblr fanfiction. THIS WASNT BAD! im glad i stayed to the end because i enjoyed it, but this wasnt nearly as life changing as i thought it was. the description of this book was so interesting!! so im just a bit disappointed
