I started off hating this book. And I do mean hating, I think at one point I even called the main character a passionless dull main character with questionable opinions. I was so ready to hate this book, not that I had wanted to, I had originally been excited for this book because someone who has very similar reading taste to mine absolutely raves about it and when I saw my teacher assigned it for summer reading I was thrilled. The first couple of chapters felt robotic, and the opening line was a bit of a cringe worthy sentence. But I actually grew to really love this book as it went on, though it was nothing I had thought it would be when I first heard about it, it was still a really great book nonetheless and I will be one of those annoying people who do nothing but rave and recommend this book to everyone they meet.
