 life's too short to finish books you don´t enjoy.

the writing style wasn´t it for me.
i felt so disconnected from the main character, it was boring, awfully slow, and irritating i couldn´t finish it.
Charlie didn´t really have other personality traits other than her trauma and perhaps that was what made her feel inauthentic or realistic.
i also feel like there isn´t truly a plot or it´s confusing.
it´s also so triggering and gives ideas of how to self-harm while claiming to be a book that enlightens or makes people who self-harm feel more seen.

SUCH A GOOD BOOK! I normally don't go for books with dark themes but the premise was very interesting and I'm glad I decided to give it a chance.

This book was breathtaking in the worst ways possible. Please do not make the mistake I did and read this when struggling with the topics this book discusses. This book caused me to relapse at least twice and almost relapse per like 10 pages. This book was beautifully written and if I wasn’t struggling myself it would’ve gotten a higher rating.

Absolutely loved this story. It’s heartbreaking, makes you angry, and makes you want to save her. This was an joy to read and will stick with me for a long time. Everyone deserves to find their tribe.
