This is a reread and I'm still not sold on this one. To be fair I feel I have missed a lot of set-up for this couple in the previous books.
I feel this book is interesting in its premise but I felt the mood of the book was overwhelmingly sad/anxious, between the harrassment the heroin faces, the hero who has given up on love, the anguish about her friend's pregnancy, her father who keeps disappointing her... it's a lot !
