This was pretty good!! I enjoyed the buildup a lot and I loved how the characters ended up becoming really close by the end of the story. I wasn't really shocked with the plot-twists, because it felt kind of obvious. But still, it was really good and a great read. 

would most likely reread, but not definitely ☑️

La parte final no me sorprendió (hablo de la idea que tiene cierto personaje a la altura del 80% del libro), pero ni tan mal. He estado enganchada al drama, que es una cosa que siempre está bien, y el personaje de Nate no me ha disgustado. Quiero especialmente a Addy.
