i personally think the book was okayish, although Kathleen did a great job making the reader really understand how certain mental illnesses feel, it mostly felt stretched. i was excited but it wasnt giving me what i needed i guess?? i definitely do not recommend to those who don’t prefer graphic details of what’s mentioned in the trigger warnings. Far from the plot, i loved the fact that my book had a discussion board about the book it felt really cool and interesting to write my thoughts about the plot within the same book. i really wish the book was divided into chapters though. 
i did not enjoy the love story 😭 it was good to read about riley coming out as clean but it wouldve been better if there wasnt  one at all as it doesnt match the aura of the overall plot, i firmly believe this book would've been better if so.
