“I remember that home isn’t about how big the space is but how we fill it.”
I really really wanted to love this book. I’d heard such great things about it and was very excited to read it. It’s not that it was bad by any means, but things just moved along so quickly between the characters. I get they’re teenagers and feelings are more intense, but goodness.
Because this is YA I know I’m not the target audience for this book considering I’m nearly twice the characters ages, which is something I did not want to hold against the story, but I also wanted to take my enjoyment and feelings into consideration, so I landed on a median 3 star rating.
