I liked this book, the plot was nice, with twists and turns and overall it was a pretty good read.
One thing I did not like about this book though, was that the ending fell very flat. I mean there was so much hype about the whole thing and in the end it isn't really explained very well, and she just loses all emotion. Another thing I didn't like was how suddenly towards the end of the book she just starts actually liking Julian, she goes from hating him to being ok with him and then suddenly she can't live without him, it just doesn't make sense.
