When I got about halfway through this book I thought that I wouldn’t finish it because it was feeling very monotonous and superficial. However, once it picked up, I couldn’t put it down. The last half or so of the book completely swept me up and I definitely did not expect the twist that’s revealed. Lockhart’s writing is beautifully tragic and these characters are ones that I surprised myself by caring for so much. A great example as to why you should always push to finish a book, even if you’re doubting it.
