I loved this book until the last quarter. And then I was too confused about what was the point of the story. I’m either not smart enough to figure it out or it’s not clear. Reading other reviews, I know I’m not alone in my confusion. (view spoiler) ...more

I have NEVER been so happy to be done with a book until I read this one. This was the worst book I have ever in my life read. I thought The Hazel Wood was the worst book until I read this one. It's never taken me a month to read a book before. This books was a STRUGGLE to get through. The only reason I didn't DNF it was because Youtubers I respect said it was so good so I was holding out for the good parts.....OMG I will forever trust my gut on a book.

I was so excited for this book because libraries and books and stories... but... but the plot is not going anywhere! The characters are not going anywhere! Things get interrupted by these short stories (which were really nice short stories) and then nothing happens and I wasn't sure what I was reading at one point and just NO! Not for me! ...more
