I usually find it hard to read books when there’s no relatability in the characters or when there is a very hard dislike for the main character. In this book I really disliked the main character but was still intrigued and felt like reading more at a certain point. I even started feeling sorry for the main character and started hoping she would turn things around. That is until the last chapter, when the main character explains how she is going to turn things around. Even though I absolutely hate what the other character has done to her and I despised the bullying that’s being portrayed. The ending shows the true character again of our main character. This book is a train wreck that you don’t want to look at, but you can’t avert your eyes. True page Turner.
