This book felt really rushed. Or maybe I rushed it. It just seemed like a lot of things that should have been major plot points and dwelled over for longer we’re just skimmed. For example, America’s dad dying, her being shot and the whole penultimate scene didn’t seem to have any major lasting effects on anyone, she didn’t even seem that sad when her dad died . There were some cute moments and speeches however predictable they were and stuff I’d definitely heard elsewhere before but it was kind of sweet all the same. Tbh I think I’m just over this series now and it was just nice to have something quick to read. I think these books may have made me realise I’m done with YA for the most part though, I think I’ve grown out of it and next year I’m gonna try and read some more advanced books and try and read them a bit slower too.
