dark emotional hopeful sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I really enjoyed it. It’s definitely the sort of book that can remind you how intense emotions are when you are 17. 

I started crying when Park’s dad let him go, and I didn’t stop until the last page.

It felt implicitly racist and fat phobic… the storyline was a good idea if it had it be executed better
