Where to start... First I did really enjoy this book however it was just kinda sad the whole time. The main character has mental health issues that she is working on/dealing with the whole book. While it was great representation it was hard to read at times because the author wrote it so realistically and convincingly. However the references to being bisexual felt extremely forced and like they were just for show. 

The reverse aspect was very interesting and almost fun in a way because something would be referenced that you didn't know about and then down the line you would learn the origin.

Overall it was an interesting concept and a "fun" read.

 Hazel has a way with words and describing emotions that truly capture both the highest highs and lowest lows. In some of the promotional work for the book, questions like what age group is this for and how should someone who hasn't gone through a breakup understand the book? I would say, young adult or older would most benefit from reading this book. As for requiring experience, I think that there isn't a need for one to have broken up with someone to understand the emotions. It is so well written and the emotions so applicable to many scenarios in life, some of them addressed within the book, I think anyone could find a way to relate. 
From the prologue to the dedication, a wonderful story is woven with emotion presented everything and more than I was expecting. 
I've reread it several times, a couple of times from the last chapter back to the first. However you read it, I think it's worth it. I even specifically reread certain sections, more than several times over. 
Give this and her other works a look.
