Accurate depiction of the teenage experience in the beginning, however I felt like the book lost momentum as it went along and just became quite miserable and strange as the plot took over. The plot is very unrealistic and bizarre which makes the book feel quite immature, and the ending is rushed and slightly disappointing.
Graphic: Eating disorder, Mental illness, and Self harm
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts
