2.5
However, the main character and Ned Vizzini himself only stayed 5 days in a psych hospital. I really don't think that 5 days is enough to treat severe depression like the ones Craig and Ned Vizzini had.
And I thought the book had more emotion, but honestly, the whole story felt kind of flat for me.
