The first couple chapters were hard for me.   I was struggling to connect with the characters.   The chapters made me uncomfortable so I almost stopped.   But I kept going and I am so glad I did.   I loved all the characters (except Matt).  Lila annoyed me but I still loved her.   Definitely recommend.  Great book about new starts
