i love ATBP so much. It's lovely and beautiful, and it deals with real topics that society doesn't talk about enough. please read this book. if you end up reading all the bright places, prepare to SOB at the end. you should also check out other books by jennifer niven, such as holding up the universe and breathless. their both amazing but, in my opinion, nothing will ever be as perfect as ATBP. just read all of her books, she's amazing.
