This was not at all the way I thought it would be. Gotta say, it takes a lot of reading between the lines to find the depth and layers in this one - it is too easy to write off the main character as the phoniest one of them all. But then again, him being edgy and annoying is a very 16-year old thing to be. His sister Phoebe sees through it all, and I thought she was the most loveable character out of the bunch.
Graphic: Suicide
Moderate: Sexual assault
