Johnny’s story is so heartbreaking. It’s also an excellent use of a, somewhat, inconsistent timeline as he comes in and out of memories and consciousness. This was recommended by a friend and I can see why this book was given high praise by them. Sure, the writing style is something to get used to but I’ve read other books with similar styles so it was fairly easy to understand. I just loved it all, really.

The audiobook was performed so well but also the intro from the mom really made me emotional. Then I was like fuck this book is gonna fuck me up too isn't it? And then it did. I didn't cry but you really feel every emotion. A book that can truly be universally understood.
