5.0

I am shook at this novel. I loved it! The characters were unlikable but real! Dominick was so naive and being only sixteen, I felt bad for him because I could understand how easy he fell into himself. I grew attached to the mother right away and was heartbroken when her secrets were spilled. My main reason why this is five stars is because the plot was completely character-driven how a novel should be written.

The only thing I would say is the sub-plots were not as developed as I wished. Still, this novel had me at the edge of my seat. It might even win the best book of the year honestly. I recommend this book if you love character-driven stories.
