Refreshing to have a main character with mental health issues.

I read reviews saying this glamorizes mental illness, and I'm not sure... if that's even... what it's doing? But I'm not really sure what it IS doing? I don't know if I can formulate any opinions about this book that don't end with a question mark? I liked it? I don't know what happened with the world-building? It was kind of cool though?

Give it to kids who like Holly Black and dark fantasy? Don't give it to tweens cuz it's got some sexy parts and some suicide-y parts?
