An amazing book! and narrator ;)

This was a very thought provoking book. There were a few places tht had me in tears.

Heart Breaking

First book I've ever read that brought me to tears! Omg the letter and the journal brought on solid tears and Julia whelan as always does a wonderful job narrating, She is one of my favorites! I would absolutely recommend this book!

Pretty Good Overall

This was pretty good overall. The narrator was entertaining to listen to, and the story tugged at my heartstrings during a few moments.

Real and Beautifully written.

I know this author is writing from experience and she really expresses the pain and and heartache that happens when you lose a loved one. This is very different than her other books. I like that she didn't sugar coat parts of it. Suicide is such a hard subject to write about but I think it was very real. It is labeled as a romance which I don't think is right. Not sure what it would be. The F bombs were enough that it shouldn't be young adult. Very well written and the narrator was perfect.

Sadly believable

A good story about a terrible subject. This book realistically captures teen suicide and the effects it has on those around the victim. I thought the story was realistic interesting unbelievable the way it was told still kind of kept you guessing as to what had really happened and how it was going to turn out. Overall, it was an enjoyable read it did create some tears at the end.
