Geez, where do I begin. I remember reading this book in 8th grade but I didn’t finish it. It has been on my mind every since then and I decided to pick it up two days ago. It took me two days to finish, which is pretty quick (although it is a YA book) I really related to Cassie in the sense of not knowing my place in the world or feeling trapped by my feelings.
I love the way the author describes things, it makes me feel really seen. I’m glad I saved reading this book all the way through now that I’m older because I just relate much more. I would recommend to friends and I’m definitely gonna buy my own personal copy :)
Note: I’m making this a 5 star because I can’t stop thinking about it months later!!!!!
