Honestly, I didn’t like the main character and she felt kind of whiney to me. It’s almost as if she was asking for self destruction, the way she never let herself get over Gabe. Not to say that some loves will stay with you your whole life but she welcomed this with open arms and chose to stay in contact with him which just frustrated me.
