You Were Here by Cory McCarthy
Did not finish book.

Gosh, I really wanted to like this book. But the entire time it felt like I was dragging my feet reading this book. I mean, I couldn't get a real sense of the character's 10% into the story. I didn't really get who anyone was, and the changing perspectives felt like an Ellen Hopkins poetry book gone wrong.
I did like Mik's (that was his name right?) chapters being told in comic, and that's an amazing trait to keep, but I wanted to claw my eyes out to the point where I'm just going to shelf this and maybe later this year I'll pick it up again. For now, I can't even give this a rating. I felt it was well-written, but for something that's supposed to be character driven, I was driven off course.
