I thought it was a terrible book. After my friend recommend this to me and I have to do this for school, I decided to give it a try with an open mind. but I was very disappointed. It was extremely difficult to finish this book because the plot is everywhere. There are abrupt shifts from each event and even sudden changes of characters that literally came out of nowhere. Other than that, it was very boring to read about a young girl's memory with her mother. The young characters act too mature than they should be.
