Hmmm. This is a tough one for me to rate. The message as a whole was deeply impactful and true to life for my own experiences growing up with mental illness. However.....man.....this has a serious case of male writer syndrome and I was deeply uncomfortable by the trandphobia and sexualization of teenagers. I think if anything though that it's proof to me that I've grown out of YA and should seek out books on mental health that are nonfiction.
