I found this book really nice to read. As well as seeing the character develop, so does the family dynamic, which are both are main focus on this book. It delivers a good message at the end, something I really like in books as it always leaves me feeling changed, in a way. The way that the family members evolve throughout the book, not only in agreement with the main character, Audrey, but also with their own interests put a big smile on my face. This is a great book to read if you need a mood lifter and some information of anxiety. 
(Side note: I also appreciate how the book did not rely on telling the events which caused Audrey to develop severe anxiety, as that is not important to her character in the stage of the book.)

Relatable book. Sometimes I did get mad at the protagonist but I can’t blame her.

While this book isn't perfect, is an easy quick read about a girl with social anxiety. I could have used a little more explanation about past events, and I found the mother to be entirely too much, but I enjoyed the sweet romance and the brother/sister dynamic very much.
