this book was funny, haunting, heartbreaking, and wild. 6 stars.

victoria "tori" spring is a 16-year-old girl with a mental health at rock bottom. she's tired of everything and she worries about her 15-year-old brother, charlie and his anorexia/o.c.d. (obsessive compulsive disorder) relapses. 

one day at school, she finds an online blog under the name "solitaire," pulling pranks and tricks around her school. tori hates having her life disrupted and when a weird, obsessive boy named michael holden won't leave her life either, she falls into a rabbit hole of chaos and confusion. (this is not a love story.)
