I enjoyed this book. It was pretty easy to read and I liked the story. However, I didn't like the main character, Joan. She was very boring to me. I think this book was really well written. I only gave it three stars because I didn't find it moving in any way, and I didn't learn anything or change my perspective based on this book. It was simply a nice read. I do think the ending was abrupt, but I still liked it.
