Dark and twisty, just in time for the start of spooky season - LET’S GOOOOOO.

What in the Wattpad is this? Wish I could give this zero stars. Definitely not for me, finished at around 25%.

03/02/17: Can't wait to finally start reading this book, after having it nearly a week now. I loved All the Bright Places, and while admittedly I have not read any of Niven's other books, AtBP was enough to push me towards buying this one. I was a little dubious upon reading the blurb, so I hope this book isn't a let down that uses a mixture of self hate and mental illness to create "love".

Enjoying it so far, but why the multiple spelling errors throughout the book? A little distracting..

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review on both Goodreads and my blog, emporioepidemic.blogspot.co.uk

Well, so far I'm hooked! Three chapter in. this book reads both intricately and easily, and I can't wait to see how this one pans out. Looks like I'll be up all night reading (again!).

So Grace is beginning to annoy me.. She seems overly simplistic as a character, being too easily manipulated by Jack- to the point where she sounds like a child rather than an adult. I also feel Millie's character is more insulting to those with Down syndrome than intriguing. She has learning difficulties, she's not an idiot.

[SPOILER ALERT] So Jack disappears on his and Grace's wedding night, shows up late to pick her up and THEN tells her she 'has no right' to question him regarding any of it. And she STILL goes to Thailand with him, only blaming herself for Jacks behaviour as she 'behaved like a fishwife' and was 'borderline hysterical.' Does Grace have no backbone or self preservation?!

This book is certainly intriguing. My only qualm so far being Grace's enthusiasm for marrying a man she's only known for three months. A man who agrees to buy her the house of her dreams and allow her disabled sister live with them. Maybe I'm just a septic by nature, but I'd expect more maturity and reluctance for a woman in her thirties; Grace sounds like a love struck teenager.

Is it just me that Thinks Georgie is incredibly selfish? Fair enough, stay home for Christmas due to work commitments, but do not expect your husband and young kids to wait around for you like Christmas can be rearranged to a time that suits your hectic work schedule..

Hmm.. Just started this book and not sure what to think. All very "woe-is-me, my-life-was-just-so-unbearable" from the first page.
