Reading notes:
Momo sucks ass.
She just accused man of a crime he didn't commit? And what she accused him of is not even comparible of her wearing lipstick? And her and her boyfriend are so happy about it? They deserve each other.
The scene with the pills in uni. Just like, girly, if you have something on your heart, maybe don't throw it at the first person you see?

I do not actually remember if there were examples of addiction, alcoholism and drug abuse, but I am not planning to reread the whole book to find them. It felt like they were there, but do not trust my word. Also, ableism is there for like a chapter, but it is bad.readingwithcoffee's review against another edition

There are parts of this that are also hard to read, given the subject matter. It would make great required reading for a social studies class in high school. It will definitely make for good discussion tonight at our book club.
