Honestly, I was okay with this until the dumb epilogue.
Seriously? Chase puts in that much work on herself, quits acting (no issue with that, honestly, good for her), runs away to the mountains, then...winds up pregnant and barefooted in the kitchen within 3 months?? What the shit?? I don't really care that she ended up with Zeke, a guy she BARELY KNOWS, but couldn't she have, you know, found a local job or done something with herself besides get knocked up right away? I know she's writing a book, but I'm still angry at how dumb and unearned that is, especially since she doesn't even write and has shown no tendency to be any good at it (uh, journaling is not the same). The ending blew any goodwill I had towards this book.
