A reread. This book is a little slow, but it definitely picks up at the end, and so much of the rest of the series springs off of what we learn here.

I found Ali very annoying, there's only so much puking I can handle in any book and this reached my limit. I thought Ali would have been much stronger than she was but that said I did enjoy the first book in the series and I'm sure I'm going to love the rest

This is my first time reading a book by Rachel Skatvold and it will not be my last! I truly loved this author’s perspective on life and her writing style as well. I believe that it is book one in a series and I am already looking forward to what will come next

Book Favorite

"I'm a latecomer to the television series, and while I had read (quickly!) the book years ago, the show awakened new interest in me. I wanted to revisit the characters, and the book is the perfect way to do that. (Note: Not a light beach read! This is a tough, tough story.)"

WOWOWOW. I picked up this book after a million recommendations from tiktok of all places, and it did not disappoint. I waited until I'd finished the current books in the series to review any, and I can say that this is my least favorite of the series, but still earns 5 stars easily for me! If you're having a hard time getting into it, I guarantee it gets better. I fell in love with the characters in this series. The world building is amazing, and this has easily become my favorite series. So thankful to have come across this.
