4.0

I can practically smell the book challenges coming for this book upon its publication, but I think it’s an important addition to the YA genre. I found Ivy to be an extremely believable and complicated character and the story itself wasn’t straightforward, making it that much more true to life. The narrative doesn’t glamorize (although I'm sure that argument will be made) but instead gives a glimpse into reality, as complicated and sometimes simple as life really can be. 

Thank you to Random House and NetGalley for the review copy.
