This book is honestly really depressing, but important. Check content warnings because this is dark and it talks about a lot of things. I changed it from a full five to a 4.4 because I felt like some of the things said were a little problematic. For example a character said the only thing that could save her was being in love and as this is YA I just am not fully comfortable with that. Other then a few some things it still holds up and I love that it’s written in verse.

A guy who thinks he's gay realizing he's straight in a mental institution and falling for this bitch, no thanks. I've read worse, but I just don't like it.
