As I began reading, I wasn't sure what to think of Bex. He seemed nice enough, but the whole teacher-student relationship was throwing me off. The more I read, the more Bex seemed suspicious. My stomach started churning any time he was mentioned. I found myself starting to defend Marin in my mind and wonder why Chloe wasn't being . . . well. . . best-friend-like. It drove me insane! I started to favor Gray and found myself liking the idea of him and Marin together. That being said, I feel what happened between them happened so fast. Chloe's attitude had me suspicious of her throughout the entire book, and I couldn't defend her lack of being a better friend, that is, until it all made sense. I had theories that encouraged me to read on. The rage that filled my soul when Marin spoke to Mr. DioGuardi was indescribable! It went away for a bit but came right back tenfold when Marin spoke with Kalina. After about seventy-five percent of the way through the book, I felt everything was rushed, and I found myself wanting to know just a bit more. Overall, it's a good read! I'm glad I was able to add two new to me authors to my TBR.
