The End of Feeling by Cindy C. Bennett

5.0

*I received a copy of this book via NetGalley to review. All opinions below are my own.*

Let me start this review off by saying that I absolutely loved everything about this book from start to finish. The story, the characters, the flow of the book—for me it all worked together so well.

The two main characters, Benjamin and Charlie, have both had very difficult lives growing up. They both have secrets that they want to keep from becoming public knowledge. But as their friendship grows, it becomes more difficult for them to keep their secrets from one another.

I never knew quite where the story was going to end up, which I loved. Too often I find things to be predictable, and this book was anything but predictable. The End of Feeling not only accurately portrays what the high school experience is like for some, but also shows what it's like trying to keep up appearances and pretend that everything is just fine when it isn't.
