I picked this up hoping I would like it way more than I actually did. I didn't hate it, but midway through I found myself not caring to what happened to those characters. Ben and Tim are... boring, dislikeable, and we only fall in love with Jace because he has literally no flaws—and then he dies, in a huge, and I mean huge, what-the-fuck-is-happening plot twist, just so Ben and Tim can get together in the end. Who even wanted that to happen, really? No one, that's who.

Luckily, this is an overall quick,* pleasant read, and I didn't have a bad time going through the story, so I don't think I should give it a low rating. It's okay. By all means, don't expect your next fave, but it's okay.
