The good: the story & main character grabbed me right away. I read it in a day. The prose was cleanly written. There were a few nuggets about real-life experiences that rang true and gave the story some depth. The dog character is adorable.
The just-okay: Yes, the main character endured some tough things, but too many incredibly lucky things happened too quickly for me to take the story or her too much to heart. For me to completely buy in and root for a character, I'd like them to be a bit more grounded in realism. Also, I wished for more humor/funny moments.
