Summary of this Book...
This book is beautifully written. I had tears in my eyes more than once as I read through.

The thing I love most about this book is its positivity. I know, that’s a weird statement for a book about two severely depressed teens who make a suicide pact. But, it’s about how letting people in and allowing them to help you to heal. It’s about the beauty that life gives us, as opposed to the devastation that death affords.

I’m not a teen, but I could relate to the feelings of despair and overwhelming sadness. The metaphor of the black slug living inside Aysel that eats everything inside her; all feelings, light, everything; is powerful.

I tore through this book when I read it. I had to know what would happen in the end. I like that this is a YA novel because I think most people of that age will relate to, at least, part of these feelings. But, ultimately, it's a book about not giving up, and it shows the reader that you never know what may happen to change the way you feel.

It’s just a beautiful book. I loved it.
This type of Book is good for...
People who are depressed. It will make them feel less alone, and it will show them that there is always hope. It's also a great story with well-crafted characters.
I especially liked...
The positivity. Also, the fresh descriptions of depression.
