* I got this book for review from the publisher for my honest thoughts*
I thought this book was really unique read. I think this book reminds me so much of a book like recovery road or the older t.v show higher ground. I LIKED how this book tackled so many issues that young people face today like drugs, alcohol cutting but also a massive focus on grief and PTSD. This book also focused on the lost of friendship and that really struck. me. I really did like the chapters the POV of the girls in this story. The mystery did not wow me, but I really enjoyed the read!… (más)

I don't know what I was expecting when I requested this book, but a first-person unreliable narrative was not it. I had no idea what had really happened to get Hannah remanded to the institute, but the back and forth with herself gave me a few insights early on.
