I understand why it's a novella, but so much of this could have been a full-length novel. But that's the point, right? 

It's all fleeting and temporary.

It's blue or red. 

My heart is so broken over Riley. And Blair's final words to her...

I can't say that I enjoyed it in the traditional sense of the word. It hit far too close to home to enjoy. Still, I enjoyed it as much as one can enjoy watching pieces of themselves get crushed over and over. 

I would read it again. I will read it again.
