This could have potentially been a five-star read for me if there had been a more cohesive plot. Ella was a strong protagonist, but the multiple POVs felt extremely unnecessary as they were inconsistent. Likewise, certain plot points would arise and then drop off with little or no conclusion. The ending also followed this pattern with not much being resolved.
