I really enjoyed this story, it's a wonderful young adult semi-fiction. It has themes of love, loss, suicide, friendship all told through the protagonists perspective via letters to an anonymous recipient. It discusses some relatable high school experiences, and especially the experience of transitioning into adulthood.
