This one was a hell of an emotional ride. It starts off great, then the characters piss me off, and then the event comes. After that event, it makes me want to cry through every page. I believe when a book is being able to make you feel a lot of emotions at the same time and eventually crying from sadness in the end, is a good book. All the Bright Places explores mental illness in an interesting way. People who read it from the first pages, will say that it's an insult to people struggling from mental illness. As you read further and finish the book, you will understand something greater. This book is about moving on, this book is for friends and people who have someone suffering from mental illness. You get to see the 2 perspectives, but in the end, it's really just one perspective and it is from Violet. Because Finch, as much as he wants to tell us what goes on in his mind, he didn't really understand it himself .We are left with what we think he is thinking. (view spoiler)[But believe me, someone who is that desperate for wanting to kill himself will not know the answer either. It's a sensitive matter and from my psychology student perspective, it's great that the author explores this suicide theme. To remind us that sometimes, we cannot change a person, sometimes, one can be healed with time and someone else can't be cured at all although he can have all the resources he wants. If Finch doesn't want to show his loved ones his distress, he will be really good at hiding it and unfortunately, Violet has to accept that fact and move on with her life. There's nothing more she could do. (hide spoiler)]
