This was a fantastic story. Heart wrenching at times, while still being inspiring and having this optimism even when it was starting to look a bit bleak.
Harley, surprising no one (since the book is named by her) stole the show. Quite literally at times. The conversations around her mental health were tough to read as someone who struggles everyday with their own.
The family dynamics were also well done. I remember being on the cusp of adulthood and feeling like my parents weren't always listening to (or weren't always getting) my needs.
I knew when I read Starfish that this author would be one that I'd come back to again and again, and that she'd be an auto-buy author for years to come.

I really, really enjoyed Harley in the Sky. I really connected with Harley and her start in finding herself and where she belonged.
