General Description: What if you met someone on a roof right before you were about to jump off? Violet and Finch meet during this situation. Their relationship grows from there as they partner up for an exploration of Indiana's wonder spots for a school project. Their relationship is tumultuous, especially as Violet handles the grief of losing her sister and Finch's mental health, but will they better each other?
The good:
- Fairly quick paced
- I really loved all the sweet moments this book had to offer
- The scenery and adventure of this book was great.
The not so good:
- One star is lost due to the mental health representation. I do not trust Jennifer Niven's representation of anything after Holding Up the Universe.
- Another star is lost due to the parents' actions in this book. They were extremely frustrating and conflicting throughout the book.
Overall: It was a good book, but tbh, the movie was also pretty good and I think fairly accurate so you could go either way :)
