This book was a crazy experience. Surreal. Absolutely unreal.

I have just finished reading and I don't even have the words to explain how amazing this whole thing was. I just sat and binge-read the last 200 pages in on sitting.

First of all, the plot of this book?! Holly, how do you even think of something like this? I would have NEVER guessed what was going to happen. I couldn't put it down. It was such a page-turner! 

Also, Pip's character development? What the heck? It was so well-written and the way she had the realization was super crazy.

I don't think I can put the level of amazingness of this book into words, you'll just have to read it yourself.

This was truly a mindblowing experience. This is definitely a 6 star read for me! I recommend you read it 100%!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK. I would definitely recommend this. Pip deserves the world. Max Hasting pissed me off. Ravi is just ❤️. Cara slayed. Jamie was kinda meh. I felt that he was a bit naive and he really really needs to get his life straightened out. I disliked him a lot and I feel so bad for his parents. Nat was portrayed wonderfully
