This book felt like a half-baked fanfiction, which is probably why it was so confusing and nonsensical. The science was not science-ing, and the magic did not magic. All Holly does is work, worry, lie, repeat. Oh, and sleep with every man shortly after meeting them. Peter wasn't in the book all that much, and Holly's romance with Chris was unconvincing. The ending felt rushed and the climax happens offscreen! I would have DNFed this book if it wasn't against my religion to DNF books.
