emotional medium-paced

Initially rated this 4 stars, but after reading 90% of Yours Truly, I am bumping this down to 3.25 stars. Because I like Yours Truly better, but Yours Truly is going to get 4 stars at BEST.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story — there were moments and parts that I literally could not put the book down. The writing is not bad, per se, but is very simplistic and does a lot of telling rather than showing.
