These aren't your average high schoolers, nor their average drama. These are young adults who've been traumatized and decided to love, be loved, dream, hope, and be. Plus, space.

How did a book I almost DNF’ed end up leaving me in tears of sadness and hope? How did a book, with what I thought to be mediocre writing, end up having some of the most stunningly beautiful quotes in the back half? 

This was well worth the read and I am beyond glad I stuck with it. While most conclusions and answers felt handed over without much conflict I see the reasons why now. This book isn’t about the conflict or resolution, it’s about human experience in a way we can all understand it. It’s about failures and pulling yourself out of your circumstance. It’s about love and family and how that transcends space and time. 

This book was wonderful, I’m glad o gave it the chance it deserved.
