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.

Real people don't act like characters in a book, always saying and doing just the right thing and having happy endings. If you're someone who wants that in a story, this is not for you. If you're someone who reads to have the world reflected back at you in all it's pain and beauty alike, then it definitely is.
