"I loved it. I think the perspective was told beautifully, and the way the mc thinks is something that people should think about more too. The way Marin rationalizes things is amazing, even thought this book is meant for a little bit of a younger audience it deals with real struggles that happen to people everywhere all the time. From bullies, relationship problems to mental and physical health issues. This book really made me think about others and how everybody goes through things, and it did it in a way that wasn’t really into the “nitty gritty” details, just plainly and yet powerfully put. "
