This book was really well-written, though. Cross-Smith wrote a heavy and beautiful story. Tallie was just weird.
Moderate: Suicide attempt
Minor: Suicide and Murder

The ending was absolutely not satisfying - not for the most obvious reason (I can definitely respect and appreciate that), but because it really didn't fit the rest of the plot. The story simply gets interrupted and yanked back into "real life", I guess.
I wanted to like this book so much and now I'm just sad and disappointed, like I've fallen for a ruse.
