I'm honestly not sure this novel is for me - I do enjoy dark and sort of painful to read books once in awhile, but for some reason I'm not really interested in this one. Maybe because I've read other books that dealt with abusive relationships and sort of had enough of the topic? IDK. <br />Lovely review, though. :)Veronika @ Wordy and Whimsicalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06813427718618609226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-3079647369664841992015-12-17T17:05:32.939-05:002015-12-17T17:05:32.939-05:00I think this is the only Sarah Dessen book (out of...I think this is the only Sarah Dessen book (out of the ones I've read) I didn't like.

You totally sold me. Awesome review, Emily!
