I don't know what it is about Henry's books, but the final third drag heavily to me. I ended up putting the audiobook on 2x speed, which is rare for me. I had the same issue with Book Lovers where I felt the ending was over explained for what it was.

Minor: Death of parent, Drug use, Grief, Alcohol, and Pregnancy
I found these parts of the book to be very minor and I definitely didn't think twice about their inclusion in the story. They also aren't presented in a traumatic way, I just listed them since technically they are there.
