A review by cvsuthie
When We Collided by Emery Lord

4.0

It's around 1 am and I'm too tired to write a proper review, but this book was a lovely read. It was cute and tragic and emotional and beautifully written, with complex characters and interesting familial relationships that intrigued me more than the romance, although that was great too. It's also an important look at mental illness and bipolar disorder. Overall it was a great book, and it would be a 5 star except for the fact that the writing sometimes felt very disconnecting and distant to me as a reader - I didn't feel like I was part of the story and that kind of turned me off of the book because it felt weird reading something I felt so unconnected with. Anyway, I do still definitely recommend this to anyone who loves YA contemporaries, especially those featuring romance and mental illness.
