To say I loved this book is an understatement. I love a strong, sassy FMC and Pen was that and so much more. She did not let anything stop her, including her being legally blind. That representation in this book is incredibly written, because Pen is SO much more than her disability. And Rowan loves every aspect of her. They grow together and it's absolutely brilliant.
