I kept waiting for this book to really hit me emotionally but for some reason I just couldn’t get there. Perhaps the characters just weren’t enough for me? I’m not entirely sure- the concept is fascinating, no doubt about that.  And the love triangle plot has real potential.  The ending makes sense.  All the pieces are there but for some reason it just didn’t resonate with my heart like I thought it would. A bit of a bummer!
