there is something deep in there about self-sabotage, it made me cry, but i hate how her only personality is her sickness. and nothing about it was funny, even though it tried to be.

There are moments of incredible sadness, humour and hope.
Whilst some might not find Martha likeable she was certainty relatable and I personally was always rooting for her and Patrick.
A difficult read due to the topics covered but I still struggled to put it down and would actively recommend it to others.

i said goodbye and it wasn't enough, one word, too quotidian to contain the end of the world. but it was all there was.
SOB. this book was simultaneously so sad & yet so beautiful & i don't know how to feel other than it lives up to it's title brilliantly.

Also to note, the synopsis on the back of the book made it seem like the plot would be her going back to her parents’ and figuring out how to build her life again which is not remotely the plot.
