Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.
I just couldn't do the extremely young and quirky narrator.

I was surprised how dark this book got in places for a YA romance and was almost worried it wouldn't have a happy ending but it pulled through at the end. Despite portions that got a little heavy, I really enjoyed this and thought it was mostly a fun read.
