Love this book
I really enjoyed reading this book. I had to read it for a class in college. It has all the elements of a good book: Love, strength, family, and how we can all overcome the dark place in our lives - we just have to let people in.

good
I think this book is very relateable and understandable. This book is easy to relate to because people have had the same things happen to them.
