Put off writing this review for a while because this book was so confusing. I liked the basic premise and the side characters. The main protagonist, though, was just SO ridiculously self-sabotaging. I figure of course she'd be whiny at the beginning, because she'd need to grow as a character. But it just went on and on, and the love interest put up with her shenanigans. I really don't know what would have drawn him to her, or why he or any of the other side characters would keep putting up with it.
