This book was just ok to me it wasn't good and it wasn't bad it just.......was. The book was going pretty well for me and I was actually enjoying it until Tyler moved away. Then the book lost its luster to me and became boring. The letters between Mackenzie & Tyler were fillers and I HATE fillers in books! The letters were fillers because they(Mac & Tyler) are living in the age of telephones and cell phones. So all the pages spent on these letters could of just been phone calls and the book could've been filled with more substance. Now it would be a different story if the letters were of epic proportion however they weren't they were just basic regular pen pal letters to me now before buying this book. I read the reviews and not knocking someone's review but they said something along the lines of Mac getting over her eating disorder too soon and from having a sister that was bulimic. I can say that her recovery wasn't too soon at all like Mac my sister's eating disorder was due to her not having control over anything in her life.Not like with others whom have eating disorders because they think they are fat or the disorder is more mental so they keep seeing themselves as fat even though they are skinny. So people who turn to an eating disorder for control tend to get back on track pretty fast once they feel they have more control in their lives. Now overall the book was just ok it lacked character depth and could have had a little more character development but overall it was ok. In my opinion I say you can borrow the book it wasn't THAT good that it's something you will reread or even care to have in your book library. Now this review is based upon the contents in the book and NOT the author. I understand that us readers read a book in a lot faster time than the time it takes an author to write it but even with that said this book didn't do it for me.
