Slow to start but as soon as I got into it didn't put it down. A classic John Green story with a flawed main character, loveable friends, kind love interest and a mystery Intertwined throughout. Really felt for the character throughout and her journey through this time in her life. Mental health and the struggles not swept under the rug but spotlighted as well as the impact it can have on those around you.
Spoiler
the ending was one that felt very real and brought me peace but I worried it wouldn't in the lead up. Hearing that her battles continue but she will lead a life and somewhat "go on" through it all brought me a lot of hope in the endGraphic: Medical content, Mental illness, Suicidal thoughts, Panic attacks/disorders, and Injury/Injury detail
