I inhaled this book and then sat there for five minutes crying. Now I’m going to make everyone I know read this book. It’s like a perfect mix between Its a Wonderful Life and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Deep and inspiring and interesting and so, so heartfelt.

Incredibly mid tier and offers a bland take on mental health issues (that it insists is revolutionary).

I enjoyed this book. I think the ending was 100% predictable, but the way the author went about getting the character there was cool.

Listen - this book cured my depression. 
Okay so that’s a joke, but honestly, anyone who has dealt with depression, suicidal ideation, or even just complete failure and despair will resonate with this story. Despite the topic, the book made me feel quite hopeful and grateful for my life. I see it as a novel length thought experiment about the “what if’s” in our lives we may ruminate on. 
Ultimately I don’t often dole out 5 star reviews. Only the books that change my life get those. Please read this book, if you’re in a place to do so. Anyone and everyone could benefit from its themes.
