I have been looking forward to reading this book for so long and I have to say while it wasn't bad I do think my expectations of this book were higher than they should have been. 

One of the biggest issues that I had while reading this novel is that the main character was so frustrating and whiny. I know that she was only a teenager but it also felt like she was a bit of a drama queen about everything. I did enjoy some of the side characters but also don't feel like they were as well fleshed out as I would have liked. 

Which leads me to this being more of a plot driven story in my opinion rather than a character led one. I think that the characters were just there to make the plot move and unfortunately the plot was boring to be for the 2/3rds of the book. 

I am glad that I was able to read this as a buddy read because it helped me to push through to be able to discuss this book. 

I may pick up another book from this author but it will probably be a little while before I do.
