Oh my poor heart ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ This was easily one of my all-time favorite YA novels! Charlie & I relate so much, that it often felt like I could have written certain lines myself. Her relationships with Amelia & her mom were so close to mine with my BFF & momโ€” I bawled at some parts because I felt so *seen.* Love love love this one and I canโ€™t wait to reread it in the future!

โ†’ Things I Liked: diverse cast of characters, family drama, short chapters, real-life situations

โ†’ Things I Disliked: sometimes it was a bit too dramatic but Iโ€™m pushing that to the side because itโ€™s just so good!!
