This book was fine. I was a little annoyed with Helen sometimes because she was acting like a teenager instead of an adult. The book could feel like these people were middle schoolers sometimes. I liked Jake and his story. The tension was strong between Helen and Jake. There were some good quotes in the book and there were parts I would read aloud to my husband. I laughed, I cried. Excited to read a little more Katherine center!
