This book was pretty great to read as a 19 (almost 20) year old who feels just how esther felt throughout the book. she was able to put into words so many feelings that i have never been able to communicate. her writing style is unlike any other book i have read and she tells a story extremely well. i would definitely recommend for young adult struggling with mental illness.
