I adored this book. I was hooked from the very start! Now as I go back through Goodreads I see it only got like a 3.5 star rating average. I didn’t look through what the complaints or reasons for the low rating are, but I just have to say that I loved it. There was so much for Maggie to learn in this. And I wonder if people said she was an unlikable character because she only thought of herself, etc. That was a big point to the story. And honestly, knowing teens, and knowing that I can often do this myself, a lot of people only think of how things affect themselves. It’s hard not to. The way she had to learn to change this, as well as how it all happened was fun and kept me turning pages and not wanting to put the book down to do anything! I also wish I could know sometimes what people were thinking at certain times. Wondering how off I was about how people were feeling about situations. This was a lot of fun, and I definitely recommend it!
