How We Fall Apart

3.29 AVERAGE


impulsively picked this up again because i had nothing else to do in a house without electricity. unfortunately, i did not end up liking this. the book's premise was very promising but sadly it really fell flat with the execution.

however if you're looking for a short and fast read, this one fits the bill. who knows you may just end up liking it too

Almost 2.5 stars

A page turner with potential for delivering some strong messages but lacked in depth. The book was too short to try to deliver everything it attempted/wanted to and in the end I felt indifferent to the characters and overall storyline.

I didn't love the characters but also didn't hate them. The story fell a bit flat in some ways and was a little too crazy for me

The story has a very popular premise, but it was far too slow for me.
