Solitaire by Alice Oseman
4.0

i liked it even though I could not really identify with the protagonist all the time - she is like me when I was 14 and i‘ve very much outgrown that person. I anyways like the plot and how the characters are written! All of them are quiet complex and I like how Tori digs and finds out a lot of stuff. I feel like the aesthetic of the book is “sad“ and well it never is a good thing especially for teenagers to make “sad” their whole lifestyle. It’s weird that Tori’s parents don’t care about her or even notice her quiet obvious mental illness. However I enjoyed reading the novel.
