If he had been with me everything would have been different... I wasn't with Finn on that August night. But I should've been. It was raining, of course. And he and Sylvie were arguing as he drove down the slick road. No one ever says what they were arguing about. Other people think it's not important. They do not know there is another story. The story that lurks between the facts. What they do not know—the cause of the argument—is crucial. So let me tell you...

Dnf at 10% then jumped to the end. This book had such a strange writing style. 1st person present tense but I???ve never felt so detached, possibly because there was hardly any dialogue.
“You think it is okay for you to be sad every day. But it is not okay. And you do not deserve it.”
This was so devastatingly beautiful and I feel like it is going to be a story that I will think about for a long time.
I can't actually express how this story actually made me feel. Autumn was such a perfect main character and was so easy to feel attached and connected to.
This story was real and rough around the edges. It showcased what life is really like. It's not a fairy tale and no one is perfect. It managed to captivate so many heavy topics in a way that felt so personal and raw.
I couldn't stop myself from crying because the way the characters thoughts and feelings were written on the page just felt so authentic to me.
I absolutely loved this.
