I tried so hard to like this one. The story was interesting, some cool characters, but overall I'm just not a fan. I think the writing style just isn't for me, it comes across as very juvenile (it's giving first fanfiction) and Alice's character was frustratingly childish and self-centred. There was so much that could have been explored better but was sailed through with no mention or only a brief one. 

One thing I was happy to see was the depiction of therapy and a therapeutic relationship was actually very realistic (I'm a social worker) kudos for that, it's rare!
