I was super excited to read this book because the reviews were wonderful but - I'm wasn't a huge fan of the book. What killed me was Joel's POV...why? Because men don't have conversations like the ones he carries on with his male friends and his brother. It felt more like a female conversation.
I love to read books from multiple POV but I need them to be realistic to some degree.
Joel was also a little bit to sensitive for me. Without giving any spoilers let's just say his reason for breaking up with Annika was silly. Oh and when he called her a bitch......ummmmm, hell to the no. I was done!
And little miss Annika started out being such a strong charater and all of a sudden, BAM,she becomes a shell of herself.
