@syalyinhh haha i have a love-hate relationship w/ it. i'm great w/ beginnings, but it always kinda goes downhill from there. tysm btw :) if u read any of my stories, i highly recommend u skip drowning, love letters, & pivot's place. they're all my earlier works and, suffice to say, the writing is far from good. i'm actually not that big of a reader (if i don't like a book immediately i'll just put it down... i get bored lol. i think it's awesome that u read a ton, tho. reading is awesome af), but you should definitely read The Perks of Being a Wallflower if u haven't already. and Autobiography of Red (it's a novel in verse, so it might be hard to adjust to. but it's so amazing and i get a lot of my inspiration for "teenagers" from it). also u should read Everyday by david levithan. and Papertowns (you can skip tfios and just watch Me and Earl and the Dying Girl. tbh it's 100000x better). sorry if i'm rambling lol but here are a few more that you might like: The Giver quartet, Thirteen Reasons Why, It's Kind of a Funny Story, and Feed. they're all kinda sad but also rlly good and srsly life-changing. so yea um if u like any of them lemme know :))
