I really liked this book. I was a bit reluctant at first since it was a recommendation from booktok.
Lily is sweet and adorable. She writes all her thoughts in a diary and the author portrayed very beautifully the depression and pain she was going through. She had no hope left, that is until Colin suddenly appears in her life and turns it upside down. Somehow his presence in her life also changed the way she talked, meaning she was both confused and relieved at the same time.
The book itself is a full roller coaster of emotions, so I suggest you have some napkins with you.

The idea of this story was an amazing one. Seeing someone care so much that theyโd want to play hero to someone who is too far gone to be saved. Amazing idea, but poor execution. There were many spelling errors (sorry but it has to be said) and, in my opinion, the story was so poorly portrayed that I felt myself having to skim parts. The representation of how depression is, was the only realistic part in this story. But aside from that, it was poorly represented in my opinion.
When someone is so far gone in themselves because of their mental health, no one can save them aside from themself. A guy cannot save a person nine days in to meeting them. Itโs just truly not possible.
The brother knowing what was going on and leaving all the pressure on to Colin to save Lily was so unfair to read. That pressure on him was just heartbreaking, especially seeing the love he began to have for her. Also, I HATE what Lily did at the end. She made the person she loves believe that she is dead, just for her to surprise him by being alive? I wouldnโt have forgiven her for that. Sorry, but I just wouldnโt. The poor mental health representation in this book, when it could have been amazing is whatโs worse to think about.
