I really liked this book. There were a bunch of parts where I was surprised. I thought it was cool how some of the characters had met or seen each other when they were younger. My favorite character was Daisy, but I liked Logan too. If you like this book, I would suggest Every Soul a Star and Finally 12.

I LOVED this book. There were so many twists and turns in the plot! I was so interesting I couldn't put it down. I finished it in two days, literally.

It depends on how much time you spend each day. I spent one day reading it, and I read it for about 2 and a half hours. If by two days you mean 48 hours, that's ridiculous. Did it take you about five hours total?
