The main character is a high school student who shies away from interacting with others, and purposefully pushes away anyone who tries to get close to him. As the novel progresses we find out why!

This book is great for language learning because it uses lots of everyday language (school related, work related, vocabulary related to emotions, etc). The author has a poetic way of using simple words and metaphors to describe the main character's feelings.

The book really picks up in the second half. I liked the cast of characters and their eventual impact on the MC. The ending did feel a little rushed (?) to me but maybe that's because I read the last few chapters in one go — I really wanted to know what happened! 😅
