I really appreciate the opportunity to read this book, so thank you Netgalley for offering it to me.

I really tried with this book, but ultimately could not finish it. It is very rare I put down a book and don't finish it (I've only not finished 2 books this year out of over 230), but this one was just so hard to get into. I read 30% of the book and wasn't invested in any of the characters. Well, I was intrigued by Jordan, but not enough to keep reading.

Dylan seems like a typical 16yo and the two best friends are decent side characters. It's the plot pacing that is the issue. It starts off fine, with the way Dylan and Jordan meet. But the second time they meet is a bit ridiculous and is rushed so much. This seems like a super important moment and the author totally glossed over it quickly. I had so many questions. And I get that Dylan is freaked out and it's from his perspective, but it still wasn't written in a way that conveyed that and was slow enough to allow the reader to absorb the information. 

It just didn't have a single element keeping me interested.
