 I received an eARC courtesy of Knopf Books for Young Readers/Random House Children's & NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

This was difficult for me to get into, but once I fell into it, I fell deep. As an adult, I did indeed feel frustrated by some of the very youthful decisions Claudine makes, but I also know that this is a book that many teens need. Claudine, and her choices, are very relatable. On the negative side for me is that parts of this seem a bit overly wordy. Not necessarily a bad thing by any means, but it is just my thing.

For libraries: This is a worthwhile addition to any realistic contemporary fiction collection.
