I struggled through this book. I wasn't a fan of the writing style to be honest. It wasn't as engaging as I hoped it would be. I think perhaps writing in the first person from Kate's point of view would have helped. Or even alternating chapters with different characters. The style was a little stand offish, in my opinion, for the subject matter.

That being said, I do think this story had potential. I definitely think we need more reading material on this subject that shows the different ways it can affect people and how to cope. I like that the idea of therapy was tossed out very casually and without stigma.

I wish we had gotten a little more closure on the relationship between Kate and Max. I'd like to think they were able to find their way back to being best friends in the end.
