I just didn't feel like this book lived up to all the hype that I had put on it. Obviously I knew going in that it was going to be about addiction and their fights with it but I guess I just had never really been in the mindset of an addict. I think this book really put into perspective for me how all-consuming addiction is no matter what your vice is. That being said though, it was kind of exhausting to read. I was angry at Lily for her being so upset with Lo about his addiction but not wanting to do anything about her own issues. I prefer a book to be filling and I love fluffy romance and this just wasn't that for me. I don't think the writing was bad and I do believe that it was a really great representation of how an addict thinks but it just wasn't for me.
