A review by kickpleat
When You Were Here by Daisy Whitney

3.0

This is a novel about death and coping and learning how to move forward but there were so many plot sticking points that I just didn't buy. Like this super rich 18 year old who pops pills & has sex on the reg with a sexy doctor. Yeah, because maybe when you're a sexy doctor an 18 year old is so appealing? Also the appearance of the classic manic pixie dream girl who helps to heal the rich kid with her insight and quirky haircuts. Still liked it enough to give it 3 stars, but it also just felt a little too waxen. Though, it did make me want to visit Tokyo in a serious way.
