Wow. This is an electrifying fake biography, surprisingly gripping even though it was composed of memories to explain the artist that was Addison Stone. At the very first you learn about Addison Stone, a beloved daring teenage artist living in New York, is dead. Her funeral brings in so many people, inspired people that chalk the sidewalk in Addison's shade of violet and toilet paper nearby trees in her honor. This and other things all make her seem like a badass rebel to be admired.
But then you dig deeper into who Addison Stone really was. Was she a self centered bitch that only knew how to tangle others into her life? Was she an astounding artist that created beauty in her art, twisted with pieces of morbidity? Was she using her potential or wasting it? Was she as filled with life as everyone said she was? Was Addison capable of really loving anyone? Did the dark parts of Addison outweigh her beauty?
Did Addison Stone, hot topic of the art world purposefully fall off the bridge she was measuring for her painting, or was it an accident?
Maybe a little bit of everything.
