The book started off slower than I would have preferred. Once we finally got into the meat of the story I began to enjoy it a lot more. The biggest source of irritation for me was that throughout the entirety of the story the MC was really indecisive like to a point where I was getting annoyed. I don't feel like we were every provided an actual explanation as to what she was basically allergic to decision making. There were a few times where her choices didn't make sense to me and the justification seemed like a stretch. In spite of those small things, I still really enjoyed the story and her cousin Keis was my favorite. This also really made me ponder what love actually is.
Graphic: Abandonment
Moderate: Death of parent
