    This book gave me goosebumps throughout the entirety of the story but not much happened. It was just an undercurrent of tension and apprehension. The characters were amazing and the plot itself was interesting but I was expecting a lot more to happen.

    It's a little corny but still a very good story about disability; learning to love (or just accept yourself), and how to be more than just the sum of your parts. I feel meh about the adoption storyline as an adoptee myself and knowing other adoptees, I know some of us might react like Aven did but honestly a bunch of us don't hold onto that grief/abandonment/rejection.
    I was annoyed by Aven's always chipper personality in front of Connor and Zion, mostly Connor, even if she had a point; Connor also had a point and on top of having Tourettes he is a teenager going through hormonal shifts and changes which just adds so much to it. Overall I did enjoy the book and I will most likely be getting the second one when I can.

    This was absolutely amazing. Every chapter kept me going, wanting more; making it more and more difficult to put down every night. The story, the plot, the characters, the banting was all top tier. It pulled me out of a very deep reading slump and brought me back into the joy of reading. Each chapter is set up like a scene in a play which is unique for a novel. I should have caught onto the secret of the whole book much faster but I was too deep into it; experiencing it like I was there instead of thinking about it critically.

    I would skin that character myself for you.

    This was such a fun read!! Oona is is such a complex character and it was so interesting to see her younger self dealing with her older body as well as the amnesia. I loved seeing her react to the letters her past self left for her in comparison to the years when nothing was left. The side characters were amazing as well: Kinzie is absolutely amazing and loved him.

    I did not see the surprise coming and nearly started to cry while at work. I will definitely be reading more from this author.
