This was a mostly fun read. It did flip back and forth between the past and future every chapter, and to be honest I kind of just wish those were two separate books, because I found myself speeding through the future chapters just to get back to the past storyline, which I found much more interesting personally. But that being said, the further into the book I got the more interested I was in the future story, although I can't say I liked the romantic tilt that Simon and Eliana's relationship took near the end. Maybe I'll like them more in the sequel? But in the end I did enjoy this book, even if I won't be adding it to my favorite YA book list.
