** One month later... I changed my rating to a 5. I just can't forget this one. 

I have a love/hate relationship with this book, but one thing is for certain, I will never forget it. It joins a small number of books that left an enormous impression on me. 
I was 100% head over heels in love with the love story, but then I got kind of mad at it, or disappointed anyway, and then I got horrifed. Yes, utterly horrified. And then I was bawling my eyes out like a child. 
JT Geissinger, what in the hell? I mean... I am impressed. Very. But wow, I felt some things I wasn't expecting to feel. 
I thought Collen Hoover had the best example of this kind of mind fuckery until an hour ago when I finished this book.
