About this listen

A darkly comic and heartbreakingly honest YA novel about finding the courage to help a friend who can't stop hurting herself.

Zoe and Hank (short for Hannah) have been inseparable since they met in elementary school. The leader of the pack, Zoe is effortlessly popular while Hank hides comfortably in her shadow. But when Zoe's parents unexpectedly divorce, Zoe's perfect facade starts cracking little by little. Sinking under the weight of her broken family, Zoe develops an eating disorder. Now she must rely on Hank for help.

Hank struggles to help Zoe; after all, she is used to agreeing, not leading. How can she help her best friend get better before it's too late?

Written partially in letters from Zoe and mostly in narrative from Hank's perspective, Abby Sher's Miss You Love You Hate You Bye is a poignant and eye-opening novel about friendship, mental health, and learning to put yourself first.

Terrible narration

3.5 STARS

**minor spoilers**

Zoe is the star in her relationship with best friend Hannah, nicknamed Hank. Hank realizes Zoe is on the path of a dangerous eating disorder and wonders how to help.

MISS YOU LOVE YOU HATE YOU BYE is told in dual timelines with Zoe’s letters to Hank occurring in the present and Hank narrating what led up to Zoe’s hospitalization.

I enjoyed Abby Sher’s writing style and quickly tore through the pages of this quick read. I had difficulty understanding the friendship, because Zoe operated like she was having a very long manic episode and in need of medication and Hank followed her aimlessly, wondering if she should do or say something. Both teens were sympathetic, Hank more so.

MISS YOU LOVE YOU HATE YOU BYE skirts along the edges of important issues, grief, mental illness, divorce, family, self-injury, anorexia, self-esteem and relationships without truly addressing them. Some were addressed through telling, not showing. I kept hoping for more depth. The friendship between the girls felt imbalanced and unhealthy.

Although I don’t like non-ending endings, MISS YOU LOVE YOU HATE YOU BYE did end on a somewhat satisfactory note for me.

MISS YOU LOVE YOU HATE YOU BYE left me wanting more and wondering what kind of health insurance Zoe had that allowed for such long term treatment because her parents weren’t wealthy.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
