meh
I really loved the first two novels, but I gotta say, this one disappointed me a bit. This one was supposed to focus on Matt, but we get these chapters that have us still reading about Jenny and Jake. I really wanted this one to focus more on Matt and him moving forward with his life. It didn't need those other chapters that had no involvement with him at all. Otherwise, when it was focused on him, it was good. Solidly emotional and raw.
