2.5
The concept of the book could’ve been really cool, however it was badly executed, I hated the writing and the characters were absolutely not likable, if I felt tenderness or love toward the characters it would’ve worked, sadly I hated most of them and didn’t care of what would happen to them.
The main character was so annoying and boring, I must admit that her life was hard with her accident and all, but I found her really selfish, she was acting like, since she’s hurting more than the others they don’t have the right to feel bad about anything.
The romance was SO plain, I didn’t felt any chemistry.
Still, I have to admit that the plot twist was cool, not impactful because as I said, I wasn’t attached to the characters, but the end was too long, it would’ve been better if it stopped a few pages after the plot twist reveal. Honestly the plot twist is what got the book to 2.5 stars and not only 2.
So the whole thing about her losing her memory because of how traumatizing it was, was great and realistic, the fact that they burned the house was a cool thing too, but if you think about it they were kinda dumb about it, why starting the fire before going out ? Why didn’t they spoke about that ? Why did she started the fire with them still inside the house ?
I didn’t understood those things, and once again as I already said, the characters weren’t lovable and that’s the main thing that made me hate it.
Also the little stories were cool at first, but there were too many of them it was becoming annoying.
