Do you ever go into a book knowing nothing about it and it is just gut punch after gut punch? Cause apparently that's how I need to pick my books from now on casue y'all this book had me in the palm of its hand!!
(Check trigger warning through!)
I am I sucker for nonlinear story telling, I live pick out the lies and the half truths! I am glad I didn't know anything about this though, cause if I'd know this book was told in second person I probably wouldn't have picked it up, but...
This it was just too good!
I would recommend this book to my friends... But maybe not my mom. If you know you know.
I need book two right now! WE ARE GOING TO STEAL THE MOON!!!
