Wow. I finished this book in one reading and sobbed at the end. Fagan did an amazing job telling Maddy’s story.
Madison Holleran’s story is one that will stay with me forever. While I can’t even begin to know or imagine how she may have felt, Fagan’s words resonated with me. As someone who has been in positions before where they try to explain the depth of what their feeling or struggle to convey how bad it really is, I feel for Maddy and what she must have been going through. To not be able to put into words how low you feel and to constantly be asking yourself, “what’s wrong with me,” is one of the worst feelings in the world. I empathized with the stress, confusion, and pain that consumed Maddy as she tried to delicately keep up the facade that all was well.
Fagan did a fantastic job at respectfully telling Maddy’s story, weaving together a picture of what could have lead to this outcome and combining it with research and personal anecdotes.
I cannot recommend this book enough.
