3.5 stars

I liked all of the storylines in this by themselves, but I wished more of the book had been about the 4 girls and their relationship instead of their relationships with other people. I also feel like the characters could’ve been much better developed - they seemed very flat and had much more potential. I did like the appendixes at the end, though, they added a bit more originality to the characters.

I did like the overall premise and the first half or so of the book - everyone getting together and trying to get along was interesting and I wish they hadn’t split off into different smaller plots. And the ending was very predictable and anticlimactic. The writing also seemed pretty juvenile and over-simplified, which is sometimes a pattern in YA books. You don’t need to oversimplify your writing to make it appeal to YA okay?

Overall not a bad summer read but not great writing and could’ve been executed much better.
