Beautiful book about anxiety, depression, and grief. While it was a bit young for me personally, it definitely would have resonated with me deeply if I had read it when I was in high school. Eliza was a bit hard to like for me personally because she complained about all her privileges and was a bit selfish. A lot like I was back in the day… all of the feelings she expressed though were ones I’d definitely felt and feel regularly.
