Did not like Emma for most of the book. Justin was a strong character and I liked his banter, sweetness and affection towards Emma. Learning what Emma went through with her mom was a lot, and I did have empathy for her. What happened to her was disheartening and I was angry on her behalf when she went to confront her mom about the lies. She definitely handled that situation with more grace than I would have.
