This was beautiful. It truly was. My all time favourite book is "All The Bright Places" by Jennifer Niven, and this book gave me the same feeling. It was a lovely array of emotions that just made every chapter meaningful. The only thing…

A pretty good story! Slightly predictable, but very fast paced and an easy read.

Beautifully written. I was not expecting this quality of a story as well as philosophies on life hidden in a teen book.

So many tears. This book is devastating in its honesty about suicide. Remember: don't choose a permanent solution for a temporary problem.

I loved the simplicity and yet the intensity of the subject. Its sad to see how much our youth suffer and they feel that death is the only way out. My heart goes out to all those who are experiencing similar feelings like Aysel and Roman…

This book is my favorite. Aysel is a depressed teen who is ready to suicide. But when FrozenRobot starts giving reasons to live to Aysel she starts having second thoughts. Best book ever!

There are a lot of books coming out about this topic with a romance involved, but I think this one was well-done. The characters were believable.

I agree with the little statement on the cover of the book which said, "One spark can change everything." That literally was the case with Aysel, who didn't need grand proclamations of love from her family or her school mates. All she…
