Theodore Finch is fascinated by death, and he constantly thinks of ways he might kill himself. But each time, something good, no matter how small, stops him.
Violet Markey lives for the future, counting the days until graduation, when she can escape her Indiana town and her aching grief in the wake of her sister’s recent death.
When Finch and Violet meet on the ledge of the bell tower at school, it’s unclear who saves whom. And when they pair up on a project to discover the “natural wonders” of their state, both Finch and Violet make more important discoveries: It’s only with Violet that Finch can be himself—a weird, funny, live-out-loud guy who’s not such a freak after all. And it’s only with Finch that Violet can forget to count away the days and start living them. But as Violet’s world grows, Finch’s begins to shrink.

oh my god this book was so good im definitely planning on reading it again when im in a better place mentally because i havent stopped thinking about it since
Feels. Very many feels. Predictable story but gut-wrenching all the same.
First read in 2015 and then saw the movie this year so I just had to read it again and I wasn't as upset as I was the first time I read it but I understood more than I did back then so I enjoyed the story more
