This book broke my heart in the most beautiful way. Griffin, Theo, Jackson, and Wade are such wonderful characters. They are the reason why I stuck around with this book, even though the first half was so depressing that I could barely stand it (in true Silvera fashion). The only issue I have with this book is that many YA readers will not realize how unhealthy some of Griffin's "quirks" and coping mechanisms are. This is slightly addressed by the end of the book, but not in a way that would have sunk in with me as a teen.

Spoiler

Griffin sleeping with Jackson just to get back at his dead boyfriend is the prime example of this. As a teen, I would have just felt like this was what the book had been secretly building up to, and I probably would have squealed a little bit for them to get together, instead of hurting for them both at that moment.
