Sad

I can't believe this rollercoaster that shay was dealt . From the beginning shay couldn't catch a break . Turmoil after turmoil kept coming her way . Im so shocked with the ending . This book did have some errors but kept my attention throughout .

Lacking a lot

Where to start. So apparently this is a YA book with a lot of adult content, that I just wasn't expecting. Wish it would have come with a disclaimer. Not only is the main character 17 and about to graduate high school, she also lives with her mom, has a boyfriend and host of friends, and a big brother she adores. These teenagers drink, smoke blunts and have sex in cars! If I had wanted to relive high school I would have been there for one of my high school class reunions! Disappointed and wish I could unclick this selection!

Wow!!

This book was crazy. It was definitely different from what I'm used to reading and what I expected, but it was a great read! I was not expecting that ending. Shay went through hell and more hell, and I felt bad for her. This is for sure a page turner. Will definitely be reading more books by this author!

This was a good read. I was totally thrown for a loop by all of the happenings to Shay and how she transformed, but I was particularly shocked by the abrupt ending, but there wasn't a dull moment. There were a lot of editing issues, but they didn't take away from my enjoyment of the read

I didn't like the ending

I wanted to see how Shays life would turn out after school. All that Shay went through, I wanted something positive to come out of all of her sorrow. But I guess it's just what it is. Still sorrow.

Who knew it would end this way

I think that Rome told Shay’s friends where she was that’s how Tory found out where she was.. Something you have to figure out for yourself because the book never tells you good read I enjoyed it

Wow

I didn’t expect that ending but no complaints. Poor Shay just couldn’t seem to catch a break. The money, Lifestyle, and messed up ways/ways of thinking. Swallowed her up.

So good

Poor Shay couldn’t get right. Tristan was in way too deep. I can’t believe what his wife did in the end. I was really hoping for Shay to get her life together.
