I had high expectations for this book since I see it so frequently recommended, but I admit I was disappointed. The plot was all right but a bit boring, and the characters just were not memorable. Though I sympathized with Ben, they were truthfully not a very likable or interesting character. To be honest, I still can't figure out why Nathan liked them despite the way they treated Nathan so poorly for a large part of the book. I did enjoy reading about Ben repairing their relationship with their sister and the two of them helping each other through coping with their toxic family. It was okay, but not much stood out as particularly memorable and to be honest, it is not a book I would recommend.
