Loved this book, although it was a bit difficult to read a story that’s basically about depression in a way, when I was in a depressive episode… but otherwise this book was really enjoyable. It made me so invested in the character, which made it even more difficult to see her sabotage her life. Had its little offensive moments in there I will say, but nothing too too bad.
