3.5

This book was a reccomendation from my English teacher, and I've decided it's the kind of book I wouldn't read on my own, but I'm glad that it was reccomended to me. I relate to the main character, and I appreciate the others- personally, my favorite was Millard.
I gave this book a 3.5 because I appreciate it, I just didn't quite vibe with it. That said, I still enjoyed it and will try to read the rest of tge series.
