In a surprise twist no one saw coming I had to read this for class. I really liked this book but idk it was really hard to get the motivation to read it sometimes. I always found myself procrastinating picking it up and then when I would pick it up I would read like 2 pages and then go do something else. I think this was due in part because I have been reading so many books for class recently and I've been reading them at such a fast pace that I'm honestly just getting burnt out reading. So while I still really enjoyed this book and had such a good time reading it, I think that one day I might revisit this story when I don't have a time crunch and feel pressure to read it so that maybe I can enjoy it even more than this first read.
