One of Us by Tawni O'Dell
4.0
I read this one a few chapters at a time for the first 100 pages or so. I had a hard time getting into it and was prepared to give up, but I kept reading and I'm glad I did. I flew through the last 200 pages.
I had a hard time rating this. I didn't enjoy Danny's POV. He has a traumatic past so some damage is to be expected, but he's quite the pansy and I didn't like how he literally ran from his past. He wasn't very likeable.
Then came Scarlet's POV. That's when things got really interesting. She wasn't likeable AT ALL, but being inside her mind was as both interesting and disturbing. Her messed up story is what bumped this book from a 2 star to a 3.5 star read for me.
If you pick this book up and can't seem to get into it then my advice is to keep reading. I struggled with it at first, but really liked it in the end. It was worth the read :)
