just a short note:
if you’re struggling with mental health, and if you think that this will trigger you, please do not read it. because it definitely will.
· one of my best reads in march. it was realistic, emotional, and heart wrenching.
· to be honest, i was crying, depressed, and broken the whole time i was reading this because there’s a lot of situations in the story that i can relate to.
· there are just things that are kinda uncomfortable—adult/minor relationship of charlie and riley—which we should not be normalizing!
· but overall, the book is worth it.
