I've read this book back in October and I totally forgot to even rate it. Now I don't remember many details, but I do remember enjoying it - hence 4 stars.

I’m so mad. I’m so unbelievably mad. Much of this book was slow, but that ending made me just rage. It was well-written and I can see where someone would like this. Also, the side characters were A+. But I hate the protagonist with all of my being.
Many thanks to NetGalley for my copy...
Two things made this book for me, Lemon Fresh and the ending.
Lem is everything and more, there were several times I found myself wishing that she was the main character of the book and I loved how she gained a more prominent role as the book went along. She was the best friend we all want, flawed enough to make mistakes and fiercely loyal. She's probably one of my favorite characters this year.
And I won't spoil anything, but the ending was wonderful. There were points in the book that were over the top and ridiculous, but I can't say enough good things about how the book wrapped up and set itself up for the sequel. There were hints and clues dropped throughout, so nothing was abrupt, but it still managed to be unexpected. They were the type of clues you looked back at to go, "oh, it all makes sense now," even if it at the time it slid past your noticing.
I think L1FEL1K3 was smart and well thought out, even if Kristoff has more of a thing for dramatic car chases and Mad Max style chases and violence than I do.
Overall, it's a good read and I'll definitely keep my eyes out for the next one.

Okay, I’m filming a review of this book tomorrow for YouTube because it’s too good for typed out words.
Also, I literally have no words right now because this book just blew me away.
The writing, characters, settings, and everything were all so good. Jay Kristoff is such an amazing writer and this book is just, wow.
Please read this book ASAP if you haven’t!!
I’ll update this tomorrow with a link once I publish the video :)
