(3.75/5) 3 hours 30 minutes - This was a perfectly enjoyable light-read, but nothing too special really. It feels pretty relatable if a lonely teen is reading, and I love the friendship that develops between Emily, Frank, Dawn and Collins, I think that part is really well executed. I wasn’t too big of a fan of the flashbacks, and I feel like the sub-plot with Gideon and Sam was sort of unnecessary and took away from the story rather than adding to it. However, overall it was fun to read, even felt a little emotional at times, but isn’t particularly special.
