Please, please read the trigger and content warnings before picking up this book. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who isn’t in a stable mental state, and make sure if you are to read this book, there is a trusted family member, friend or adult in your life you can go to if this book begins to affect you.

This book was heartbreakingly beautiful. I loved the short chapters and was really rooting for Charlie all the way through. The character stories are good but I felt like some of them seemed important and then just dwindled out. I've got the other three in the series so I'm looking forward to reading them.
