It's too bloody long. There's so much superfluous description in this that it gets exhausting. This definitely feels like a fanfiction where they just didn't know when to stop writing or where to edit things down. For fanfic it makes sense, but for a book it's just way too much. 

The characters are nice, but it feels like they are all just carbon copies of one another--everyone is edgy and hipster rather than people having their own thing going on. And while Arlo isn't a bad character, he's also a HUGE Gary Stu who seems to be good at everything and everyone's lives revolve around him. Everyone is in love with him at one point or another and everyone is only worried about him.

I skimmed through the last of this because it just wouldn't stop going.
