Honestly a little bit disappointing. The concept was really cool, but I found it very predictable and almost cheesy.
This book was ok. Not great but not bad. The constant jumping between first person memoir of two characters and then to third person narrative of the same two people seemed unnecessary. I understand wanting to give a glimpse in to the psyche of each character but the constant back and forth took away from the story for me. Additionally some of the story, especially in the later half seemed rushed and not well developed.
