I loved this book. I recommend it, I feel like there are probably better books with this concept.
I fell in love with all the characters that were introduced while Payton was in Canada. I shipped Beasey and Payton so hard. I had also never read a book with such harsh drug use and drug paraphernalia.
The book alternates between two different times. (Before) This takes place in the past, before Payton runs away to Canada. (Now) takes place in the present, the current time of the story. Originally, I didn't think I would be a fan of this writing style because I have never read anything that had changed from past to present. After staring the book, I started to love the Time changing. I felt it was put in all the right moments.
I normally have a hard time with unrealistic scenarios. (So, a book where a girl who lived in England runs away to Canada because she isn't happy with her friends. Then while she in Canada her parents were like "it's okay just come back when you're ready" Then she makes friends with these super cool people and learns how to have real, good friends.) Didn't seem like a book I would enjoy but it definitely surprised me, because it was so much more than that. There was so much more that went into it.
