I was going to give this book a much lower score but I can’t stop thinking about it which is always a sign of a good book to me. This was an intense read with some really tough parts however I feel like the story of this book was so important. I finished the book unsatisfied though and I don’t feel we were given a proper ending and not in a good way either, I feel like Riley and Charlie’s story was unfinished. Also there were several points where the writing was too descriptive and lost the narrative of the story, but overall I do feel it was a good bur intense read.
