I one million percent would recommend this novel to everyone. It displayed a new perspective that most people don't write about and it gave you a look at how serious mental health is. I loved the variation of the two characters and how distinct and different their personalities were. There were too many brilliant things in this book like the way the author described every site so vividly it was like I was there. Jennifer Niven excellently wrote this story and I liked how she provided facts about suicide. Finch was by far my favorite character just by his humorous acts, but violet was the main view of the story after a while which was cool to see the opposite perspective and feelings toward knowing someone going through mental health problems. This book is one of my favorites because it incorporates romance, action, devastation, and a little bit of mystery.
