this is my favourite book i’ve ever read. it’s written so beautifully and flawlessly yet doesn’t lose track of its purpose. the characters are diverse and uniquely interesting yet sad in a way that’s very relatable. i’d definitely recommend this book for people like me who love more character-driven books rather than plot-driven as the whole plot kind of is character development. regardless, i loved every second of it and won’t ever stop obsessing over it !!!! there are a few darker parts so maybe check the content warnings but still an amazingly sad, funny, romantic, real book.
