It took me a while to warm to the narrator, I found her annoying for the first two chapters. Then I loved her, I've never missed a character so much when a book has ended, an original voice.
The ending was too abrupt and open for me. I didn't like Ale, she was a weak friend and always got a free pass for abandoning Kiara.
Between the dark parts of the book there's a lot of humour, it feels balanced.
If there was more to Kiara's story I would read it in a heartbeat.
