I wanted to like this book. I found myself frustrated with the main character from the beginning. It seemed like she wasn't responsible for her choices. Like she wasn't satisfied with her choices but it wasn't her fault. 

I also wouldn't have wanted to go back to my 16th Birthday over and over. It didn't seem like she learned a lot from her travels. Maybe it helped her appreciate her current life. 

I did think she was a little shitty. I am glad that she did end up with a better relationship with her Dad and that he died well.
