I loved the portrayal of grief, it felt painfully real.
I'm so sad I couldn't connect enough with Riley, she's a kid and she's going through a lot but that doesn't make it up for her endless string of bad choices.
I would have loved a second POV, following Aspen around would have been so much better for us readers, such an interesting character, I wanted to know more.
The ending felt too rushed,both MC's dads are awful, why would anyone choose to go back to live with a manipulative POS of a father? Ri, I don't get you at all
