Some readers may question Vi's acceptance of some fortuitous events along the way, but most will be drawn in by the love triangle, revelations about Vi and her family, and a dark twist ending that maintains the faintest glimmer of hope.

In addition, the book is narrated in a way that teenagers would speak today, which made it even more relatable. The characters were also captivating, and fairly relatable. With twists and turns on every page, it was definitely interesting. One of the best things about this book is the plot.
