Thank you to G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Young Readers for an eARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review!

Welcome to my stop on the Jo & Laurie Blog Tour hosted by The Fantastic Flying Book Club! I’m so excited to share my review of this book with you today. I found this title on BookishFirst a few months ago and fell in love with it. I decided right then I needed to get my hands on it, but it was when I got to Goodreads and saw how many time people had already rated it and trashed it without reading it that I decided I was going to do everything in my power to promote it. So read my review to decide if it’s for you and don’t forgot to enter the giveaway to win a copy for yourself!

Guess who’s back to struggling with reading after binging like 5 books? *This GURLLL* I hate myself. Just kidding I’m just frustrated.

There are just three questions to answer:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

My reading is such roller coaster lately. I either binge read and entire book in one sitting or binge watch Teen Wolf and Reign. There’s no in between. I did finish reading an amazing book this past week though that I can’t wait to share, it’s just my current and TBR that leaves something to be desired.
