focuses on christian religion quite a bit so if that's an issue i would reccomend avoiding. the beginning of the book also has a focus on sinclair being bullied. sinclair has a lot of suicidal thoughts, andSpoiler
finds someone about to commit suicide at one point.risemini's review against another edition

The relationship between the protagonist and the title character, which can be read as romantic, has an age gap of several years, which in the case of this interpretation is questionable given that they first met as children. There are also some uncomfortably romantic interactions between the protagonist and the title character's mother.maurits's review against another edition
