About the Book Seventeen-year-old Hadley Hall attempted suicide and has been dealing with depression for over six months. After school ends and not speaking to her family about any of the events that happened, her oldest brother Emerson comes to town with his teammate, Weston. Weston himself has depression and teaches her how to deal with it without medication. He teaches her how to not let it define her. What makes this story most interesting is the pain, the feelings from herself and her family and friends, but also the relationship and love she finds in the person who knows very little about her. There are secrets along the way, problems she has to deal with, and speaking to her two brothers and Weston help Hadley achieve that. Lots of people have depression, and lots of people love love. Self-growth in the process only makes it more relatable. I hope readers take away how to handle things without the help of medication, that readers find ways themselves to deal with day to day problems, and find that suicide is not the way.
