Trigger warnings: death of a grandparent, bullying, siblings involved in illegal activities?? 

Sigh. I wanted to like this one because it sounded like fun and I've heard good things about the series overall. Buuuuuuut this was just a mess. If I had to read ONE MORE TIME about how hideously ugly Gina is and how amazingly gorgeous Ford is, I was going to lose my goddamn mind. 

The romance was...sweet, I guess? But this somehow felt extremely long while being very short. And I don't know that I'll bother continuing with the series. In summary: shrug.
