Personally, I didn’t dislike anything about the book. I also like how the book changes the point of view every couple of chapters. My favorite part of the book is when Evan interacts with his crush even if it was temporary. I like this book because it talks about the struggles of being a teenager in this generation. Evan even gains a new family in the process. Afterwards, Evan has to pretend he’s someone's friend to ease the pain of the parents. One day someone reads the letter and dies by suicide. His mom constantly encourages him but she’s rarely around. He sees a therapist who tells him to write letters to himself to boost his confidence.
