I was really disappointed reading this book unfortunately! The only thing that kept me reading was the fact that it was a very easy read and the hope that it would get better. The writing is cliched at times and I wasn’t interested in any of the various reveals throughout the book. The ending was the biggest disappointment for me, it felt unrealistic and the last few pages were so cliche and tacky. On a positive note there was some nice description at times but generally not the book for me.
