I loved the idea of book. It was good read and pretty fast. There was just something missing along the pages.

“She wondered how many Dans there were in the world, dreaming of things they would hate if they actually got them.”

What a beautiful story, with a message that was pretty life changing for me. I love me a good pick-me up story.

It was a slow turnaround for me but the end did it justice. I understand the purpose of the story, but I felt at times it was a little redundant. I loved the concept and the message but sometimes feel it's more powerful to bait the reader to the conclusions than to spell it out.
