Lost and Found

God damn you Tarah DeWitt. I truly dont understand how her writing keeps getting better. Tarah's writing has a way of really burrowing into you and digging out all your feelings. I have never not laughed and I have never not cried reading a Tarah DeWitt novel.I adore Bea and Silas. May we all be so lucky to have people like them in our lives. HOWEVER, I will say I straight up hated Merritt. I think a lot of that has to do with being in my 30s. The biggest reason I disliked her was because who the hell freezes their eggs, leaves them to their best friend, and DOESNT TELL THEM?!?! It felt very manipulative and selfish. It should have been a conversation before Merritt died. It honestly truly disgusted me because you're preying on your best friend's grief. I know we didn't get Merrit's perspective, but I do not think she was a good friend at all.I also disliked her because of how the Silas crush was handled. Being in my 30s, I look at that and say Bea and Silas had an incredible connection and if she's your best friend, you put aside your crush and root for her. As a teenager though... I see how that can be "girl code". I STILL DIDNT LIKE IT THOUGH.
