This book is a must read for anyone feeling a little lost, as though they have not reached their full potential or that they should already have life all figured out. The book initially is challenging due to how directly it covers issues relating to mental health, however, the writing style lends it to be an easy read despite covering a range of complex topics. The premise of the book is unique and whilst other books have made me feel a grater range of emotions, with potentially a more developed plot line, I have to give 4 stars purely for how relatable and affirming the book is (and the dedication, given the time at which the book was written).
