thinking about how i read this book in 8th grade on a direct recommendation from my english teacher?? like i don't really regret it, even now i still find it pretty good, but also i was almost the same age as the protagonist is when i read this for the first time and i think that might have altered my brain chemistry in some way that probably wasn't very great
