challenging dark emotional hopeful reflective sad slow-paced

3.25

a non-linear story written in verse, you remind me of you is a story of mental illness, recovery, and codependence. I remember reading this when I was younger and finding it romantic. Rereading as an adult I found their reliance on each other to be unhealthy and lowkey toxic. But I found her growth and recovery inspiring. I hope they’re both doing well and thoroughly enjoyed this reread, though I don’t know if I would read it again.
