This book is misrepresented from the very book jacket, and handles its themes, mental illness and addiction, friendship and love and lost, in the most insufferable manner. The Main Character is not only just a horrible person who cant go a single page without demeaning anyone for anything (all the way to the end), but feels like a sloppy attempt at the author's handling of an autistic character.
