I've taken study week as an opportunity to do some reading. But it's quite relaxing so I think it's a good mental health decision. This novel possibly was not the best choice though. It's not that great. I mean, it's passable. But I wouldn't go so far as to recommend it to anyone. But alas, I can't think of anything that really stood out as a good thing about this novel. Mar 25, Shelleyrae at Book'd Out rated it it was ok. I liked the premise of this book but it slid into stereotypes a little too often for me, and the happy endings were all a little too neat - particularly within barely a year.
