3.0

This is essentially a perfectly cut out YA novel. Depressed protagonist, quirky best friends, terminally ill figure, problematic older sibling, overbearing parents, mysterious quiet love interest, mostly predictable plotline, etc. That being said, I thought it was very entertaining and I finished it really quickly. I haven't read a YA book like this in a lot of years, probably since I was in middle school, and it was a nice easy book to get into.
