"Someone once told me that teenagers feel emotions more strongly than adults. That we are literally insane for those seven years of our lives. I think it might be true.." Sapling is an ode to the rollercoaster of being a teenager. It is emotional, raw, and deeply personal. It was written with the hope of making someone feel less alone. There are mentions of Heven and hell, caring too much, and not caring at all, suicide, rude words, and rape, self harm, eating disorders, mental illness, self-sacrifice, and death. If you read this book, do it with the knowledge that you should take a break if it gets to be too much. Self-assess, put the book down. Ask for help. People love you. You are not a burden. And I promise, this book is not going anywhere.
