Boy oh boy I wanted to love this book. The concept is incredible and the journey should have been.
Instead, we're given a character who we're told is strong, independent, and very very capable, but that is never depicted in the actual plot. Instead, Demi is simply repeatedly told where to go, and what to do, and she just does it. And falls in love along the way.
Ultimately, that combined with a plot that wasn't as engaging as it could have been, kept me from enjoying anything about this book.
