I knew it would be heavy, but I was not prepared. Johnny and his crush on Melissa. I cried when he passed. I loved reading about Will and Suleika's relationship. I'm kind of in love with Will at this point. Max and Suleika's friendship and his passing was really difficult to get through. I understand that these are real people, but Jaouad's storytelling is so great that at times if read like fiction. I loved the way certain memories weren't chronologically presented to give context to later memories. This is an excellent memoir.
