I would first like it thank the author for letting me read and honestly review her book for free.I'll start with the beginning. I loved the whole aspect of Donna and Ryan running together in silence. I thought that was really sweet and that's what had me hooked from the get go.The whole switching between multiple characters' points of view is not my favourite thing in a book. If it had to be a book with multiple points of view, I would personally prefer to have just the main MC and the main love interest. But... Ms Harris actually managed to pull this off and it worked well in her book, though there were times when I had to remember which character was which but it wasn't too bad.Donna was cool. She was just there for me. She didn't stand out as much for me.Ryan was nicely written and I liked reading from his POV. Randy too, and Randy ended up growing on me towards the end. At first I thought he was this douchebag jock type but I hope in the next book we see more of his personality and see a vulnerable side of him.Lynn of course is the bitchy mean popular girl character you just have to have in a book and I must say that I enjoyed reading her character more than Donna.Rebecca was just annoying and seemed unnecessary to the story. I thought her POV dragged the story on.Don't really know what to think or say about Paul. I guess he was okay and sad what happened to him but I had feeling that something like that would happen to him.I liked Brook's spunky attitude. She brought some of the chapters to life. Was great getting to know her.Throughout the entire book I was like Spencer get over yourself, but I wasn't sure whether I liked him or not.The whole concept of the story was clear and flowed well. So that was good that it wasn't confusing for the reader to grasp the the concept. I loved the ending A LOT. It was totally kickass and had me really intrigued with how it was going to end. The "twisty cliff-hanger" at the end was really good and I'll definitely be picking up the second book to see where the story is heading.I would recommend anyone to pick this book up and give it a go. The concept is great and I think with the following books in the series, it will get better.Happy reading! :)
