I just didn't love this book. There was nothing that captivated me or engrossed me in it, which is usually not the case.Also, maybe this is just me wanting the story to be tied up nicely, but it felt like there was no point to the book, no finish that left me feeling something. I walked away feeling pretty flat.I get life can be like that, but I guess the whole time, I just kept reading on thinking that something big was going to happen.There were pieces of big, like Ivy/James and the backstory, but... meh.Also, I didn't like the book alternating between so many people as narrators. The past few books I've read have been like that. Is this a trend or coincidence? I can see alternating between even 2 people, but throwing in Raelene and James just seemed excessive and "fatty" to me.I did read the whole thing. The author sprinkled in many life philosophies inside, and some were really poignant and I highlighted them on my Kindle.
