I absolutely adored Alaine from the very beginning. The authors absolutely excelled at creating a realistic and loveable teen MC. 

The epistolary format was awesome; I loved the combination of diary entries, texts, emails, etc. It really kept the book fast paced and showed Alaine's personality. 

My only complaint was the organization got a bit wonky in places. Alaine would mentioned something in her diary entry, but there wouldn't be an artifact, so to speak, representing this event until several pages later, which left me feeling like I had missed something. Quite minor!
