I have heard the author interviewed and really appreciate her. The premise of this book was fantastic. I just didn't care enough for the main character, and I felt like the main character did way too much foreshadowing about how she was going to explain her situation and her last letter, which started to grate me. Overall, I found some enjoyment in the book but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.
