Since You've Been Gone by Mary Jennifer Payne

Did not finish book.
SHORT REVIEW:

It was a bit hard to read this book. A lot frustrating, to be honest. It has the potential to be great especially since the premise is serious and should-be emotional.

First off, the main character sucks. Its so hard to sympathize when everytime she's been given a chance to be a nice and kind person, she's turning into an ass. This girl doesn't know the word 'compassion'. Makes me think she deserves what's happening to her.

The mother and daughter relationship that the author is selling to us as meaningful and full of love just seems force and stiff. The dialogues and the main characters monologue is kind of empty. I don't feel anything at all. Even to the love interest. I just feel.. nothing.
