It was a little clunky to read but overall I thought it was an enjoyable story. The main character was not too likeable but I was able to identify with her.

This book had so much potential but I just did not like the main character. Almost every decision she made was bad and I just didn’t understand her motivations or what she wanted. The story is 80% the main character moping and feeling sorry for herself and hiding things from people. Her relationship with her dad seems self imposed.
Then to top it all off the ending leaves things feeling unresolved. It was a really unsatisfying read.

I am so annoyed!!!! This book had so much potential. I was really into it and I thought we were going somewhere and then the last 50 pages were just so disappointing.
