Good narrator for the audiobook!

Literally devastating though. I am sick with sadness and rage. 

To be fair to the author, I should not have gone in blind on this one. I was looking for a winter time read cause they usually help me see winter a little more positively rather than see it as pure seasonal depression, but this was the absolute wrong choice for that type of read. 😂 

However, I will hand it to her that she is a good writer. Creative story line and good characters. Seems the story was very well thought out and I really admire that. BUT, the ending ruined the entire book for me. The author chose violence against her readers, and I can’t forgive it. 😂😂😂

If you’re easily devastated, I strongly recommend looking up the trigger warnings on this one.

It's a cute concept, but it could've been executed better. The ending felt so rushed.
