This book definitely made me want to keep reading, despite how painful some of the characters could be. I wanted to love the ending, but it was so determined to be striking that it got away from itself and didn't quite line up.

2.5 stars: This just wasn’t for me, the writing was great. I didn’t find Theo or Alicia particularly compelling in fact I found Theo DUMB. Twist was fine
