I think this last sentence from the official synopsis sums up the book really well: “With unflinching honesty and heart, this relatable debut from a fresh new voice explores grief and mental health while capturing the timeless nature of what it’s like to be young and in love—with your friends, with your city, and with a person who cannot, will not, love you back.”

In my opinion this book is first and foremost about living with mental illness and struggling with mental health, and second about love, in all it’s forms - platonic and romantic. Adelaide has a wonderful support system that sees her through love, loss, heartbreak, and more. I fell in love with Adelaide and I think you will too.
