I really almost quit reading this 30% in. The writing was almost like it was meant for teenagers. The storyline was what kept me going. So many grammatical errors. The same exact tone for every character. Nothing changed. Whether it was Mackenzie, the letter, Ben, or anyone else, the same mannerisms and phrases repeated so it was all one character it seemed. The storyline was what bumped it up to 3 stars, but l'm not sure why this book is so highly recommended by people. Not a fan.
