In the end, I just want to state that I hated not only one, but three side characters: the father, his new girlfriend and the new friend.īooks usually have one or two characters readers like to hate, so kudos to Kyra Leigh for creating not one, not two, but three of them, and if we include Charlie among them, we have a band of unlikeable personas.

Her sister Maddie seemed like the stronger one, but on the other hand the author decided to focus mostly on Charlie, and explore her character and her inner self more, even if the book follows two POVs. Still, I could understand how all the things that happened could spin her head and awoke the anger and even madness inside her. However, the more I read, the more I despised Charlie’s inner thoughts, and since we are what we think, I liked her less and less, until I found her just… not my cup of tea. To make things clear, I was thrilled with the way the book started, and the atmosphere the author described through monologues and happenings reminded me of a brilliant novel called We Have Always Lived in a Castle. Short chapters have the ability to make book seem like it reads faster, and the first person pulls the reader in characters’ heads immediately.

The book started good, with a tone that was so easy and also intriguing to follow.
