4.5
A good book overall. A few parts were quite boring but I’d still say that the book was better than the movie. It says a bit more about their grief and the abuse they suffered. The content might be triggering since it dealt with topic like suicide(duh), abuse, stalking and addiction.
Graphic: Child death, Emotional abuse, Suicide, Stalking, and Suicide attempt
Moderate: Child abuse and Mental illness
Minor: Addiction, Adult/minor relationship, and Sexual content
