 This was a good page-turner! Sometimes, I didn’t like Daunis. She seemed a little stuck up toward the hockey girlfriends though she matures over the course of the story. YA protagonists may seem irrational at times, but it’s more realistic for teen/young adults to not have it all together. I really enjoyed the tidbits about grief, forgiveness, and family.
I LOVED the healthy ending conversation between Daunis and Jamie.
I wondered why the story was set from 2004 – 2005. 

CW: Sexual assault (not detailed), of course, references to drugs
