I'm not sure what to say about this book. It didn't have much of a plot in the way that Perks of Being a Wallflower doesn't have much of a plot. But like PoBaW, that didn't really matter, because Adam had an incredibly strong voice.
It was really interesting to read about a mental illness that is uncommon and that is truly feared by those who don't understand it. I think this book could be really important to inspiring empathy about severe mental illness.
And it was hell of a funny.
So there's that.

Absolutely AMAZING from start to finish. I feel like everyone needs to read this book. It was really amazing and I’m hoping when I go to watch the movie it matches up!

I absolutely loved this book ❤️ I saw the movie trailer and per usual, I went to Goodreads to see if it was based off a book

I absolutely loved it, I felt it was very well paced. Adam is an extremely likeable and in some ways relatable. Iy made me laugh and cry, and regret taking so long to finish. It's extremely different than the usual topic of mental illness, and I appreciate the research that was done.

You lose your secrets when you let people get too close.

I thought this book was very insightful and I learned a lot about schizophrenia that I hadn't previously known. This book gives a very good point of view and helps the reader begin to understand what it is like to be schizophrenic. I highly recommend this book for anyone that wants to learn and understand more about others that might not think or see things the same way as we do.
