I open my eyes wide now.
I sit up as much as I can.
And I listen.
Stay, he says.*

A quick read that is both sweet and sad. The author really makes you feel for the characters. Looking forward to reading the sequel.
I thought this was a great read. It was very tragic and frustrating at times, but it was still hauntingly, and heartbreakingly, beautiful. Not going to lie, I teared up while reading it. This is one of those books that you want to see as a movie. This book would make a perfect movie, the ways it's written, All the flashbacks. I could see it being portrayed with so much emotion and being kind of a dark film.
I loved all the name drops and references. I loved how unique her family was, but yet so normal at the same time. I loved how her and her boyfriend were so different but so happy together. This book left me thinking about it days after I finished reading it. It's definitely one that sticks with you.
