Julie wasn't exactly a likeable character throughout the story but the other characters and plot made up for it. I'm not sure I would've finished this book if I didn't buddy read it with someone. I didn't start enjoying the story until about 60% in. Most of my enjoyment was coming from reading it with my friend. I am glad I finished it though but Julie made it hard to enjoy the book at times lol.
