I really enjoyed this book. The story begins just after Astrid commits suicide and slowly throughout the rest of the book we begin to understand who she was and what her life was like. Ella and Sydney were her best friends and both deal with the shock of losing Astrid in their own way. They both begin to realize that there was a lot they never knew about Astrid even though they always believed they were as close as can be. While Sydney turns to partying and alcohol to try to numb the pain and confusion, Ella goes on a mission to figure out what happened to Astrid. She begins to believe that Astrid is trying to tell her something, even now that she's gone.

What I loved about this book was that it deals with powerful emotions that many teenagers go through regardless of whether they've had a loved one die. I did feel that the book dragged a bit at times, but it never made me want to put it down. It's just a sad, sad story and along the way you're truly hoping that Sydney and Ella can come to terms with their friends death and get some answers.
