Before I started reading this book, I read review after review of people saying that the book was written horribly and was hard to follow. Let me tell you something… They were wrong. I loved this book and I thought it had a really interesting perspective. It was like I was reading from inside Cadence’s head and her thoughts. The storyline was unique and the plot twist at the end had me emotional for sure. I guess this was just a reminder to myself that everyone’s opinion is different and that sometimes things can surprise you, because despite many people’s negative reviews, I really loved it and I recommend that you try it as well!
If you liked The Summer of Broken Rules, you might like this one too. It has a similar setting and similar group of characters, but has a unique plot all the same.
