3.0

I really enjoyed the first 80% of this book, it was angsty, romantic, dramatic and sweet. Sure it wasn't the most unique plot and the characters didn't have that much depth but I still devoured every word of those chapters. 

The last 20% is the most clichéd 'plot twist' that I was hoping wouldn't be included and I found myself speeding through those last few chapters waiting for the obvious conclusion to the drama. The author could have thought of any other plot point for the climax or even ended the book where it was at the 80% mark.
