Highly recommend

This book was so well written, it was really an enjoyable read. Even though some of the characters are high school age, their manner of speaking is mature which aids in making this a good read for an adult. I loved the characters, especially Angie. She is such a spitfire. But besides her, you can tell that the author put a lot...and I mean a lot...of thought and care into the creation of each of her characters. Every character had development and growth throughout the book, taking them beyond the typically one dimensional feel. While the dynamic was a bit predictable between a few of the characters, it was still worth it to watch them develop. I loved how all of these different events that occurred in Hope's life tied together, in way that felt natural and not at all forced. The connections felt real and believable. The ending was so good, I of course jumped immediately to the next book in the series. This is the first book I've ever read by this author, and I feel so fortunate that I was given a copy in exchange for an honest review. It lead me to discover a great author!
