This book was amazing. Highly recommended. Very realistic and informative about mental illnesses. You can imagine what the main character is going through and is feeling. The characters are very well written and so is the book itself. I don‘t really know what else to say so I‘m just going to post this. If any of you read this, hopefully you like it as much as I did.

Two teens Addie and Fitz escape a psych ward to help come to terms with a siblings death. It gets messy. The ending is hopeful though for Addie and Fitz. It‘s not perfect, but mental health doesn‘t ever fully go away; you just continue to learn new ways to cope and live the best way you can.

I hope there will be more YA books to come that deal with this topic because 1 out of 5 teens have mental illness of some form.

LibrarianJen Also if you like Waiting for Godot, bad jokes and sarcasm, this is a must read. I listened to it on audio and it was perfect. 6y

Good morning #BFCr2 people! I got out early because the air quality is supposed to go down. We‘ve been getting heavy smoke from AZ past few days and I‘ve been cooped inside. I did a short 30 minute walk and then was so into my audiobook when I got home I did dishes, made coffee, and spent an hour weeding my garden all before the husband woke up!

“All that matters in life are the right words in the right order. We make meaning with words and we base everything on meaning and understanding.”

I‘m really digging this audiobook right now and a lot of it hits close to home.

Second day of #halfbloodbingo #book bingo weekend. I started with this one with a mc with a disability. The writing was quick and smart. But the characters felt under formed and not full.
