pickThis book wasn‘t amazingly written, with some cliche parts and bad couples, but I am willing to overlook all that, because as a constantly stressed high school student this was exactly what I needed to read. Even if the execution isn‘t perfect, the message, that students need to support each other, that suicide is preventable if you are looking out for those around you, and that turning the pressure all the way up never ends well, is everything.
I love Jen Lancaster‘s books, but I never got around to reading this YA of hers. Next up!
so-soI keep having people tell me she‘s an amazing author.... but it‘s just ok. The book was different from her usual single girl books but it was just ok. I only liked 2 characters out of a plethora of them... I almost bailed twice but I wanted to see how my two characters ended up.
