"(TWs for this book so far includes suicide attempt, ideation) This book is already so good, so fast-paced when it needs to be, and slow-paced when the situation calls for it. It tells trauma and dark mental spaces in a respectful way, which makes the characters into people, not metaphors. I can't wait to find out what happens next!" Jan 03, 2017 05:11PM
