What the heck!? This book has been on my TBR since last year and truth be told, I didn’t think I’d like it! Instead I DID NOT want to put the book down. The plot, the writing and the characters made for a story that was attractive and entertaining!

It was an alright read, I detested the main characters inner dialogue and how she was chasing after a boy who was already involved in a relationship. The plot twist wasn’t overall shocking and the foreshadowing was abundantly clear from the start, overall wasn’t great, but wasn’t bad either.

This book made my brain hurt

First off, why did they light the fire from inside the house? I don't care how drunk you are, you can't be that stupid! The author failed to convince me that the Sinclair Family was ever a rich and prestigious family. The grandpa seems so fake. In one chapter he's all happy-go-lucky and in the next he's threatening his own family, I don't know what his superior motive with the Sinclairs even is. The ending was so out of nowhere. I don't know how someone can hallucinate their friends to that extent. And to blame it on the medicine? What kind of medicine was Cadence taking? I think her doctors are drug dealers. Sorry if this review makes no sense.
