Don't You Forget About Me by Mhairi McFarlane
3.5
challenging emotional funny inspiring lighthearted reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I enjoyed this much more than expected, and found it to be a lot more focused on grief and loss than anything else, which I found value in. The miscommunications and misunderstandings in this were the parts that lost me very easily, as well as the way certain characters were written, but overall, the message of second chances and finding what you want to do with your life were great parts of the story.
