This book is fully and completely worth the hype. Rachel as a character really resonated with me and I loved her narration. The only criticism I have is
the cheap "twist" of Carey being the husband. I wish that had been upfront because it makes a lot of the early book narration awkward. The journey of them getting together would have still been fully worth it without a looming "husband" figure
