This book has left me sitting with a lot of sadness, but it was so beautiful. The depiction of each character’s mental health struggles was written realistically and with a lot of compassion. I would have loved there to be more direct interactions between Kel and Arthur but I appreciate how so much connection was created between them without their knowledge and despite their lack of contact. I feel like I’ll be thinking of the main cast of characters for a long time.
