3.5

The number of pages marked so that I can come back and experience this writing again is too many. To quote Jack Edwards, this book reads like its being narrated by Rue from Euphoria, and the main character definitely would belong in the Euphoria universe. I was rooting for her through every bad decision but more so for the people around her. The book is honest and raw in its telling. I did not think it would make me cry but one chapter in particular had me crying in 10 pages of dialogue. Billy you poor soul.
