This was a quick read which was a nice filler in between some of my long novels. I was disappointed that Sylvia's secret, which is kept secret in the blurb of the book, was divulged straight away. I would have liked a bit of mystery into what that was with the reader only finding out when Crystal did. It was a nice story about 2 friends and their complex friendship. I received a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest review.

At the beginning I was really confused, because this book starts with the aftermath and then I wasn't sure if that was the beginning, because then there were your usual book information. And then the start of the story. But okay.
I liked how Crystal not being really comfortable is shown instead of being told. The overall writing took me a while to get used to, because it was so abrupt.
I won't spoil the other secret, but I liked that one, because it isn't often you get to read something like that.
So, one might ask, why I dnf-ed this book... There is an explicit self-harming scene. I don't think I have closed a book as fast as this one before. I've gotta look after myself and reading something like that... nope. That scene, even though I only read the beginning, stayed with me for days. I had a feeling right before and I really wish I would have listened to my gut.
If you're not triggered by self harm you should check this one out, because it isn't your usual cute f/f romance and sometimes reading something different is really nice.
