5.0
Fast-paced, fun read. Full of hopeful moments of processing grief, and living with someone who is not dealing with their grief well and starts down an unhealthy path. I really loved that the characters were lower/middle class and these struggles directly related to how winning a large sum of money can be dangerous as well as life-changing. So many YA stories are all upper class kids and towns and this one wasn't, which makes sense too.
