10% of the way in I was about to set this book down and not pick it back up. The characters at the beginning were so stereotyped and because of that they seemed vapid to me. I’m glad I kept reading though because I think I finally got what the author was trying to convey with the small town meets big east-coast personalities for the cast. I want a follow-up book because the ending wasn’t satisfying to me. Loved it overall though.
