I have to be honest I got to chapter 8 of this book in November and I had to put it down. I was not having a good time and i thought about dnf’ing it but I wasn’t ready to give up on it. I finally picked it back up in May (yes it took 6 months) and damn if it didn’t finally pick up around chapter 10. It was exactly the weirdness that I loved about Rory Powers’ book Wilder girls and damn if the end of this book wasn’t a wild ride. Definitely check trigger warnings of this book before you read it cause the fires are just the beginning of the insanity in this book.
