Honestly, I ended up rating this higher than I'd planned for most of the book because
McAllister didn't mess around with the ending. I think that if I'd gone through all that (and frankly, that JEN had gone through all that), just for nothing to have changed, I would have been so angry. Not only because I hate books where things are just lost causes no matter what, but also because I feel like you can't change that much in the past without drastically impacting the future. So I'm glad McAllister ended it the way she did.


I struggled to get into this book - backwards timelines are just not really my thing. I struggle to keep up with what's happening and honestly even just to stay engaged. It's not a style that really works for me. Anyway, McAllister did it fairly well, and I appreciated that there were some moments that shocked me.
