Gabi is a loveable narrator and hearing the story in “diary” format directly from her gives the reader almost omniscient insight into who she is and how she thinks. She and her friends all go through their fair share of tough situations during their final years of high school, but they are fiercely loyal to one another and always have each others’ backs. While parts of this book are hard to read because such likable characters are struggling, I think this book paints the issues that some teens face in a very honest light and I felt that this was one of those books that needed to be written.
