I really liked this book but the ending kind of left me confused. I would have rated it 4 stars until really the last few lines of the book. Is Claire still alive? What happened to Edward? I don’t like all of the loose ends that aren’t tied up. It also took me a while to shift the back story characters between Claire and Amber, especially because 70% of the book you assume the diaries are Amber’s. So, my mind was trying to figure that out for most of the back end of the book. It was a bit far fetched to me that Amber’s family would dislike her that much that they’d leave everything to someone who isn’t really their daughter? I guess there was just too many unanswered questions for me. I was really intrigued though and did enjoy this story and the concepts. Definitely going to look into other peoples’ theories on what they perceived the ending as!
