5.0

I didn’t really know what this book was about before starting it, and wow was I blown away. First off it’s super heavy content that made me emotional to read about. I think Reyes handles this heavy content in the best way possible. I’m so impressed that they’re able to include humor, laughter, and actual communication between characters. I think they handled this book with such care that I know I’ll read anything they write. 

I’m going to need to decompress from this because it made me feel so many emotions reading about high school kids dealing with so many difficult difficult things. But again I think it was handled in the best way and can hopefully help anyone out there that needs a friend. 

I loved the friend group that came about, the unconditional way they all loved each other. So heartwarming.
