Feels really autobiographical to me 
Very sad book 
I had hoped Charlie would get better 
It did seem like he desperately wanted to get better just like everyone in his family seem to want him to be 

I don’t see the relevance of Leah’s MFA group but I guess that’s just to show she had some sort of life 

Also the part about her mother felt flat 
Unless it’s to somehow point to a factor in her brokenness 
That trace and meet part too seemed like some closure was planned for but that too did not seem tied to any relevant end for me 

Her family; I don’t know what exactly they’re ; supportive or otherwise; it seems undecided
