There are a lot of content warnings for this book please look at those before reading to make sure you are safe (grief, gun violence -current and in the past, as well as internet photo revenge porn).
I loved this story. It was fun, fast-paced, and had real growth of characters. Sometimes when we are young, we take our friends for granted and sometimes we take ourselves for granted. We want to be loved, and to be liked, and to be fun.
A music festival is definitely a test to your strength and will, especially when your friend want you to be different, but you truly just are being yourself. As we grow and find ourselves, we take some of what we were as teens with us into adulthood, and those lessons can serve us well.
