Maeve Fly

I didn't really like this book that much while I was reading it. It read slowly and I had to push through most of it. Kind of boring for awhile. And then it was just straight torture porn that didn't really do anything for me. Maeve was extremely unlikeable.  None of the “reveals” felt like reveals and I saw them all coming. 

But it made me feel a lot of emotions; emotions I didn't want to feel. Emotions that were very intense and confusing. 
It made my heart hurt, but I felt bad that my heart hurt. I shouldn't have been heartbroken, but I was. The ending hurt my heart. Most of the book I knew it was going to be a 2 star. But the feelings the ending elicited against my will? That bumped it up a bit. 

Half of this felt like a romance novel which is not what I came here for, yet the end jumped straight into the torture horror aspect but still somehow tied the romance back in? 

I'm confused that despite not really enjoying the journey, and really disliking  the  majority of the “horror” (read torture porn) I'm somehow also kind of impressed? This is unlike any genre of book I've ever read, but it all came together and sort of worked for me in the end.
