3.5
The story was engaging and completely eye-opening. I laughed, I got verbally annoyed and upset throughout the novel. I feel like I learned so much about disabilities, and I adored Lou's character development. However, it's a slow burn that I thought had small (yet very adorable) moments and was suddenly defined as love. It makes sense within the storyline, but I found it hard to connect emotionally with the characters. Also found the chapters were too long. Despite that, I enjoyed this, and it's a beautiful yet illuminating story.
Graphic: Death and Suicide
Moderate: Self harm and Sexual assault
