This book was wonderful. That doesn't even begin to cover it. As a senior in high school who's currently applying to colleges, this gave me an existential crisis and then helped me through it. Life-changing. I still haven't fully processed it. Read it! (I first heard of it from paperbackdreams on YouTube--Kat is awesome!)
