Three stars because while I really enjoyed this book for the most part and I think it had some great moments, the ending felt unresolved and unsatisfying.

Really liked this but I felt like there was ALOT going on and some of it needed more fleshed out:

This book does such a good job at handling trauma and how everyone handles their trauma in different ways. Just the way the characters’ mental illnesses are portrayed feels so real and a lot of books don’t achieve this. I feel like this is a book everyone should read and it really resonated with me.
