This just wasn't for me. I can see where maybe someone else might enjoy it, but to me the book felt stilted. Do not want to reread.

What a book! Once again Jenoff has written an excellent book! I could not believe the twists and turns at the end of the book! Really good writing and characters that are multi-dimensional!
Edit: after thinking about this overnight, I do wish Jenoff had trimmed down the first part of the book a bit to include what happenedto Hannah afterwards. I'm still not sure I completely agree with Hannah's motives and it's conflicting to me how I feel about her character.
