I really did not click with this book. I had forgotten that it was written in verse, and although I often like books written in that style, it really did not work for this story. The verse did not feel intentional (more like she just hit enter every few words to make the book longer) and it didn't add anything to my experience. Aside from the style, the actual plot was pretty much the worst. There were a few random (read: confusing) time jumps, and I basically hated the main character. She was flighty and actually the worst human. I don't really want to say more about this one; I'm just really disappointed with it and I absolutely would not recommend it to anyone else.

Such a beautiful book, I don't think that I'll look at the issues it addressed the same way again.
