I’m not sure if I can add anything new to the conversation about this book. I highly recommend it (like most I know who have read it). It confidently defies YA tropes favoring a messier darker but ultimately more honest story. It doesn’t shy away from the difficult themes suggested in its title and doesn’t slap a happy ending band aid on the wounds of its characters. This is both heartbreaking and effective.
