I am not really sure why this book didn't work for me but it just didn't have the impact that I expected it to have. Both girls are caught-up in a deadly riot and throughout the night are personally affected by the violence but I just didn't feel the danger? It probably was not helped by both main characters being unlikeable (Campbell was definitely worse).
