Listened to the audiobook for the first half, but then switched to reading the book as it is much faster for me to read and comprehend.
So far, this book is HELLA boring and I do not like the narrator, who reads like a modern day 14 year old rather than a 21 year old from the 1940s (i.e., extremely immature). But it gets very good reviews, so I'm going to hang in there a little longer and see if it gets interesting.

2.5 stars. This book has been talked up for so long I think I had too high of expectations. It took me awhile to get into the story (I picked it up two different times before actually finishing it). It was dark and depressing-the main character is tortured the first half of the book. I can't believe it's considered YA-it's pretty heavy and violent. I didn't not like it, but I wouldn't recommend it either. (Around the Year in 52 Books Reading Challenge: an epistolary fiction)

I didn't want this book to end. The friendship between Queenie and Maddie is lovely and they deserved all the happiness. The end was fully satisfying.
