the depiction of anxiety in this book was spot on, but the plot as a whole was just too.... ya for my taste. i don’t want to generalize and i don’t even read enough ya to be a fair critic, but i found the romance unrealistically sappy and the ending a little too cheerful. i get that it’s about finding happiness and facing fears — i’ve been there! — but a lot of things were resolved too quickly to be believable.
