This book sucked. From the internal monologues that I do not need to keep hearing over and over. I get it she's an over thinker (it's not enjoyable to read), while also being someone who does absolutely no logical thinking for herself. 

The first half of this book is just straight up boring.

The writing is odd, feels like there was no editor and if there was an editor she needs a new one. MOST of the sentences felt like they were missing pieces. 

Also, the book should have been 200-250 pages less than what it was. None of the story would have been compromised.
