2.5 stars. Felt like I walked into the sequel to a book I hadn't read. There is no set up so I never really got a good sense of Micah and Sam's initial friendship or understood why they were pining for each other. Pretty much the whole plot could be summed up by: “He can't possibly like me, I'm not good enough for him, and I'm not going to tell him anything about how I feel.” Which is frustrating and gets old quickly. I give the author credit for a realistic portrayal of mental illness (and how it feels to go off your medication cold turkey - those brain zaps are horrifying!) but as a love story this wasn't a book I can recommend.
