This book starts out slow and after a few chapters you might start considering to bail because it seems like the story is going nowhere. The text can be confusing and sentence structuring seemed poor. However, you‘ll get about half way in and you start to think alright, maybe this story is going somewhere finally. The ending half of the book was intense, suspenseful, and definitely poked at your emotions and I could not put the book down. #YA

This was an interesting story with alternating YA perspectives that really tells a full and detailed account of growing up. Clara and Amos act as foils for each other as we see with some of the other characters throughout the book. They develop a unique relationship and learn a lot about life and friendship. I liked this coming of age story a lot.
