First love! Eco-activism/terrorism(?)! Coming of age! Murder! I really enjoyed the twists of this book, but I felt like the character development could have been stronger (particularly with Mick’s mom). No one is who you expect them to be from the start-which makes it interesting!- but I didn’t have the feeling of reflecting back on the book and noticing things I hadn’t before. That’s the only thing I felt was missing.
