You think it's bad and then it's just worse.

Spoiler

I think I really had to just brush over the cooler thing or I would've drowned in it. Good lord how sad, it's horrible.

I LOVED this book. For a 400+ page book it kept me hooked and the plot twist made me want to re-read the whole story again. This was insanely sad and I love how the characters are written. Overall, a must-read!!!
