I can't not put into words how much this novel truly means to me. I've never ever related more to character, I don't know if it's because I've also experienced similar things Charlie has but I know it felt incredible to be represented in such a beautiful way. The writing format is the most unique thing I've ever read, and I've read a lot. This book has helped me understand who I am and helped me find myself and a little bit of closure. And for that I am eternally grateful. Please read this book! It could change who you are as a person!
