I read this while on exchange in Valparaiso, Chile (where the book takes place), and I'm from San Francisco
Spoiler(where the characters end up)
, so it was a lot of fun to read.

A wonderfully spun yarn of love and loss. Our main character struggles against the world to find her place in it, moulding her own through pure stubbornness and fire.

See review for Zorro.
I read this book because it was a bestseller and I really wanted to give this author another chance to redeem herself to me. It did not happen. Good story, but the writing style just didn't appeal to me.
