i don't think i had ever read a book about schizophrenia, until now. i know i haven't read, or seen, a portrayal of it that didn't seem cliche, or over the top. this book just felt very real. she wasn't miraculously cured because she met a boy. i just loved it. bullet points! 
 Characters: i liked Alex and Miles a lot. but the colorful cast of side characters are really what made me love this book. 
 Plot: develops nicely. it's almost a mystery book! you'll see why if you decide to pick this up. i really loved the mysterious aspects. 
 Romance: swoon worthy. they're not the easiest couple to cheer for, but they are so great together. 
 Diversity: obviously there's mental illness in this. i feel like there were multiple races represented as well. (i really need to start writing my reviews right away, so i can remember things). leave a comment if you remember specifics, because i suck. 
 all in all, if you're into sweet contemporary romances with a dash of mystery, and a whole lot of heart, pick this up!
