I’ve been wanting to read this book for ages and I finally did. I really liked it, but at the same time didn’t love it. I enjoyed that it’s written like letters to someone (you) that made it very interactive for me. 

I also really like the wording and the sentences. One that sticked out for me was
”Inside the typewriter was a piece of white paper. On that piece of white paper Sam wrote, “Write about me sometime.” And I typed something back to her, standing right there in her bedroom. I just typed. “I will”” p.74


I feel like this book is one I would like to reread in the future, we will see if I do that! :D
