However, it’s disappointing when it comes to Caroline since she’s super close to Sam, and AJ, who was previously bullied by Sam but later becomes her boyfriend. They weren’t really complex the way humans are, and normally, I’m okay with that because they aren’t the main characters. Honestly, everyone but Sam felt two-dimensional to me. Caroline, who’d be a great best friend in real life, was pretty much two-dimensional as well. I’m merely speaking from personal experiences.Īlthough I think that the author has made a valiant effort in writing about a character with OCD, I feel that the same effort isn’t really extended to the other characters. AJ, while sweet, was generally ‘meh’ to me. So, if I misspeak, generalize or gloss over or anything like that over something, I apologize in advance.

So, the bullying pretty much flew over my head until someone told me that I was being bullied. I’m also quite unfamiliar with bullying because despite being bullied in high school and college, I lived in my own bubble most of the time.

What I’m familiar with are depression, anxiety disorders and ADHD, and that they differ from person to person. First of all, I must let you know that I know nothing but the general idea of OCD, which the main character Sam has.
