This book hurt me emotionally. Mental health rep will be mentioned in the spoiler 
Going into the book I was a little wary as I'd heard it had bad mental health representation. I'm guessing this is either because 
1) The book implied that suicide was a choice/it was selfish/someone was to blame 
2) somehow romanticizing mental illness 
The book was so much sadder than I remember the movie being. Even if it might be problematic I think it was definitely worth reading.
