This is such a good book, wow. I read it after watching the movie so I can’t say I experienced all the shocks, but I loved it nonetheless. The mental health representation and the general messages are so well-presented and important and I think everyone should read this. Part of me wishes it was longer, but I think it was perfect honestly. I also really loved the writing style! Very creative.

Now I understand why this was so popular. I was feening to know who Charlie was writing to but the story was very compelling. Some of the really serious parts felt rushed but they did still pack a punch. Iykyk 
So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there.
I adored having music, books and movies recommended through Bill. I definitely tuned in while reading the letters and was immersed even more. Just for fun I’ll try to read the books Bill assigned him :)Definitely something I’d come back to.
