I've been meaning to read Solitaire for a while now but this one was the only one available at my library for now so I started here. I love Tori so much! Her dislike of people (and desire to push annoying people into a well) is far too relatable! I do wish it had been a little longer though, especially since we get multiple perspectives. While it was an enjoyable read, I do think it could have been more. Especially since it touches on Charlies struggles, something I'd have loved to have gotten more about. Especially through Tori because I loved the way she looks at things. Here's to hoping the next one will be available soon!

I liked getting other perspectives of what was going on, as well as getting more of Charlie's thoughts.  This was a cute addition to their story.
