I find emotional intelligence sexy. This book, therefore, is not.
DNF at 80% because I just couldn't take another person being determined to be foolish and not wise.
To give Novak her due: the characters are realistic, the conflicts they have stem from real human choices that I completely believed; every character had strong motivation which and a believable back story which guided their actions. However: drama, drama, drama of the emotionally unintelligent variety and I just couldn't take it anymore. There were sparks of the heroine making good choices based on having processed her life...but she waffled and believed lies and I just couldn't.
I don't want ANY of these people as my friends. If, however, you like tangled family drama and realistic interpersonal conflict, then this may be the book for you. If you prefer more emotional intelligence, try out Chloe Liese or Penny Reid.
