• Why was every girl she met gay?
•Why did she get no closure with Irene, was she even over her?
•How did she not drown from her muscles locking up at the end?
There are many more but I don’t feel like listing them right now. I also just wasn’t engrossed with her writing style. There were too many run on sentence, in my opinion. Lastly, she described herself as a loner at school but every girl she became friends with (except for Jane) liked her, and so did one of the boys. It just felt like she was a Mary Sue, but gay.
Graphic: Religious bigotry, Death of parent, Homophobia, and Suicide attempt
Moderate: Forced institutionalization
