This was a decent book, but nothing to write home about. Like others have said, Rachel was difficult to like at times. She's very impulsive and doesn't think about how her actions affect others. I much preferred the chapters narrated by Logan. The romance between Rachel and Logan was promising in the beginning but then it became generic towards the end. I feel like the excitement level of the book decreased in the second half of the book. One thing the author did well was vividly describing characters' feelings. The world building could've been better. I didn't fully understand the world and I didn't feel immersed in it. Overall, I'm disappointed because the premise had a lot of potential, but it's not the worst book I've read.
