5.0

I watched the movie before reading the book and loved it, so I decided to buy the book. The book is so much better than the movie! there are so many scenes in the book that weren’t included in the movie. I highly recommend this book, although if you’re easily triggered by mental health related topics I would not recommend you read this. SMALL SPOILER
(there is also implied sexual abuse/pedophilia towards the end)
