I came to this book after reading Everything I Never Told You about a year and a half prior and still not being able to stop thinking about how perfect it was. Unfortunately, this book did not live up to that one for me.
I didn't really care about any of the characters in this book, and they all were extremely frustrating. It's unfair, but it is really hard for me not to compare this book to EINTY because I found that to be a pretty perfect book. If they weren't by the same author, or if I had read this one first, I wonder if I would feel differently? Either way, this book for me, was only ok.
