This book was ok not good not great, just ok. So this was a easy read which was nice because you know finals. Anyways I didn't really like any of the characters. Alex was annoying like have some damn self respect and realize that your life is spiraling out of control because you stopped caring. I understand why kind of like her dad left when she was younger so I don't really know why she stopped trying junior year but whatever. Also don't even get me started on M like what a terrible friend. She was a terrible friend before she even started using drugs(which when her parents found she blamed on Alex her best friend like ok). Then the whole always bribing Alex like girl that's your best friend. Then Conner, so I understand them having sex at first because he didn't know Alex was underage, but then he found out and he slept with her again like boy bye. One thing I did like was that Alex did grow and realized she needed to get her life together and that change is constant and it's not going away.
