I thought that Ava’s experience with OCD related to my own in a scary-realistic way. But it also gave me a unique perspective into the weird intrusive thoughts and rituals that I do as well. I also liked that they made her mental health journey ongoing and not “cured” at the end of the book, because for a lot of people, mental health is a lifelong battle that sometimes has no end.
