Yes
So on the one hand, I adored Evie, and I really appreciated: 1) kickass smart girl in STEM, and 2) excellent representation of an anxiety disorder and therapy. On the other hand, EVIE’S MOM FORCIBLY MEDICATES HER (and I could tell it was coming, ugh), and Caleb is...not great. I feel like he has some good qualities as a friend, BUT I can’t get past him creating a profile to trick her into falling for him. I’d assumed it was going to be a “Who’s Got Mail?” kind of thing like Tweet Cute was, and it was NOT.
Graphic: Mental illness
Moderate: Bullying
