The Chaos of Standing Still by Jessica Brody
3.0
3.5
I don’t really want to say this book was cute, given it’s one major plot point, but it was. The story moves along at a decent pace, the relationships within it are genuine while being slightly cheesy. There’s a few things I could have happily omitted and not even thought twice about it afterwards but the rest of the book was good!
I can’t begin to tell you how frustrating it was to read the ENTIRE book without knowing the text message, and even when you think you’re going to get it you only get one line from it. It’s infuriating that Jessica Brody centers the entire book and it’s main characters entire arc over this one thing and she can’t even deliver the whole of it to her readers.
