2.0

This book was very disappointing, especially after reading the first 3 wallflower books. The writing was choppy and weird. The characters, namely Matthew Swift, were choppy, and there was a lot of redundant writing. It seemed like the author wasn't into this book, just rushing through it to get it over with. I was also disappointed because I was expecting to see more of Cam in this book. Really disappointing, I had to force myself to finish a I list interest.
