OH MY GOSH.

It was such a great book that, from the focus of a socially constipated boy who is also a genius, tells an incredible story about highschool, highschool relationships, and puts into perspective what trauma can do to a person and how it can be blocked from their minds. And how everyone is not as they seem.

The plot twist was insane and just heartbreaking.
