es gab ja nicht so viele leute, die einem wirklich vertrauten. ohne dass sie es immer sagen mussten, damit sie es selber glaubten. 

wahrscheinlich war es manchmal auch einfach nur lustig. 

was ich hier mache, ist alt. seit tausenden jahren machen menschen das.

bisschen langweilig, iwie war liss ein leeres blatt abseits ihrer vergangenheit (therapie hilft!!) 

die entscheidung, die am ende von sally getroffen wird, zurück zu uhren eltern zu gehen weil die sie ja trotzdem irgendwie lieben, war schon random und hat weder zu liss erfahrung und ihren sonstigen meinungen gepasst, noch dem entsprochen, was man vorher über sally herausgefunden hat.

Bitte lest die Contentwarnung (ganz unten) durch, damit ihr nicht, wie ich, vollkommen überrascht werdet von diesem Buch 😭😭

Im großen und ganzen war das Buch völlig okay, es gibt ein schönes Ende und die beiden Protagonistinnen machen beide ne Charackterliche Entwicklung durch. Schreibstil wechselt von Sallys Sicht zu Liss innerhalb der Kapitel, war manchmal ein wenig irritierend

Als Liss sich selbstverletzt hat, nur um "zu sehen wie das ist" wollte ich das Buch an die Wand werfen. Selbstverletztungen sind KEIN guter Coping Skill! Bitte sucht euch professionelle Hilfe, solltet ihr Gedanken in diese Richtungen haben (passt auf euch auf!)

content warning hat definitiv gefehlt und sollte bei solch sensiblen Themen definitiv vorhanden sein. Außerdem Beschreibung von blackfacing, was auch absolut nicht hätte sein müssen, davon abgesehen m. E. ein schöner Roman
