I really had high hopes for this book and thought I would love it. But I should have been a little warned by all the reviews that sort of have issues with the same things I ran across. But ultimately, for me, I feel this is one of those rare times where a YA book should stay read by a YA audience. On the surface this book just bored me, and aside from the opening couple chapters, nothing really ever ramped up enough for me or happened. Additionally, this is a book I enjoyed on my Libby app, and the narrator sounds almost like a female Speak-N-Spell from the 80s. So she basically ruined the book as being enjoyable at ALL for me. I may (??) have given this one 3 stars had the narration not been so putrid, boring, and suicide-inducing, but I will never know. I didn't hate it, but I just didn't like it and could not get into it. Wompwompwompppppp...
