Unpopular opinion: This book was just fine to me. It didn't blow my socks off, and while I will probably find myself reflecting back on some of the characters, it just didn't dig in and attach to my heart in any way. The best part of the story was definitely the characters, but unfortunately, I got too distracted with all the moving pieces to really care. I can't really say one of the things that made me dislike the book the most without giving some spoilers, but suffice it to say that I liked this book, I liked the writing, and I liked the potential, but it doesn't have enough "oomph" to be memorable for me.
