I really enjoyed reading this book. I feel like maybe it could’ve been more fast paced, but on the other hand maybe I wouldn’t have empathized with the characters as much without the current pacing. This book I had to put down multiple times but I think it’s because the characters felt so real I had to take a break when things turned to shit.
