John Green did it again… this book should be made into a movie or a tv show, top tier book! Took a little bit to get into but by chapter five I was engrossed and couldn’t put it down. I thought Green did a great job of writing the perspective of an individual with a distressing mental disorder, it was truly compelling and forced the reading to emphasize with the main character.
Graphic: Chronic illness and Mental illness
Moderate: Self harm
Minor: Abandonment
OCD and anxiety inner monologues that feel very relatable to those who experience these mental illnesses…
