I would like to preface this with the fact that I do not think that a 2 is a bad rating for a book. It simply means that I probably would not read it again, but I am happy to have read it at all, and that I would probably borrow this from a library or buy it for someone else.

With that being said, I appreciate what this book was trying to do. I feel that this book would be an enjoyable read for younger audiences, however, I did not wholly enjoy it. I was put off by some of the things Adam said/did/thought, but I appreciate his honesty - with himself and with his journal/therapist. He is just a teenager after all.

The writing of the book was entertaining, but I was not really interested in anything going on. I could maybe read the last two-thirds of the book again, but the pacing was a little off for me. I didn't really feel like anything was happening. The romance was 'meh' for the most part, but I appreciate Maya and her approach to Adam very much, and there were a few scenes between the two that made me feel warm. I also enjoyed his interactions with his hallucinations and reading between the lines with what each hallucination was contributing to his life and to the story. Though, as someone who has had a schizophrenic person in their life, I have to say that this was an entirely different experience - which is completely valid because everyone is different.

Overall, I think this book is worth a read.
