Orange's writing was beautiful, but I found the plot a little difficult and confusing. I'm still not sure how I feel about the ending and how ambiguous parts of it is. I can see how this book can be incredibly impactful, so I'm sad that I didn't like it as much as I hoped to.
Graphic: Gun violence and Mass/school shootings
Moderate: Drug use, Addiction, Alcohol, and Alcoholism
