5 stars I was going to give this book 4.5 stars until the last paragraph (ngl, I shed a few tears), perfect ending. Reading this book was like going through a rollercoster of emotions: happiness, major frustration, pain/sadness, hope and love. Sara Barnard sure knows how to write beautiful, complicated and realistic friendships.I highly recommend it!
I will probably film a full review for this one on my channel.
It was interesting and meaningful, but it never really touched me emotionally
