This is one of those amazing books that when you read it the first time you cry and laugh and just get overwhelmed with feelings because of the ending then you get kind of "this book is so sad i feel bad for giving it anything less than four stars" then after a while you forget about it then picked it up again and you realise how problematic it is. Plenty of people have changed their mind about this book after they picked it up again or read some other review stating about the problems. The characters are their illness, the adults have done absolutely nothing adult-like in this book, etc etc. I haven't reread this book but my first impression was that it was good. It was beautiful. And it made me leak water out of my eyes for more than one occasion. But of course, I'm weak for YA books that cover the topic of depression and mental illness because I'm familiar with it. I know how Finch feels most of the time, I know that as we get deeper in the book he became something else and you just can't knock some sense into him because it doesn't work that way. But now that I think about it, books about mental illness shouldn't be beautiful, most of the time when it is, it's because it's been romanticised.
