the book is incredibly dragged out, has awful and wordy writing that puts you to sleep and presents a story of unrealistically quick-changing emotions that plainly don' t make any sense and turns seemingly dramatic situations into laughable moments to recite to your friends. would rather die than have to read again, frankly.
