4.5

Writing is phenomenal, great use of figurative language and descriptors, interesting themes about death and making the kost of life, interesting premise.

I kind of hate the characters. I hate Luke. I kind of hate Addie because she seems somewhat inhuman at the end. 

I like my stories more free and happy go lucky and this book is dark in a way that doesn't have a silver lining unfortunately.

I fucking hate that she ends up eith the abusive ex boyfriend. Fuck Luke he's such an asshole and fuck him for ruining her life. He just wants to torture her.
