There were decent characters in this book that really had potential, and they kept getting close to almost feeling developed and human, but I never really fully felt emotionally attached to them like I do when I read other books similar to this. I never really felt like I totally knew and understand them. And the ending felt a little abrupt. I think I wanted slightly more closure for the relationships but maybe that’s just life.. you don’t always get perfect closure. Either way, it’s fiction, and I’d prefer a more satisfying ending since it’s not real life. 😅
