if you're looking for a short, but great, read that'll break you and make you rethink the way our society works then this is the book. (expect to be crying for abt 50% of the book.)

I just I don’t even know, I’m so happy I finally decided to read this book. It made me feel things and no was so angry, sad, hurt and I don’t even know. This book achieved all it set out to.
Edit: when i first read this book it for whatever reason it had been good, i thought it was one if the best literatures ever written! like a paychopath i fell for the Collen Hoover love train despite how unappealing her other works had been to me that I almost immediately dnfed it. I think a part of me was just desperate to love her sonce everyone else i knew sid but that only led to the current me not even able to fathom what about this book i enjoy?? a question with no answer.
