This book was a stay up all night read. From someone who could relate heavily to the experience of the psych ward. It felt good to see the development.

Surprisingly a solid raw and real read about teens and mental illness/suicide. There’s no sugarcoating and not everything is tied up with a nice bow at the end and that’s what makes it feel so realistic to me.
