I downloaded this when it was free, and I'm glad that I did. It's different, interesting and a nice refreshing YA read. However it has a few of the same old tropes to be paraded about for all to admire. So some parts were predictable. One negative, is that the main character and her friends seem to be different from normal people. This is pretty much the start of the first chapter and talked about. It's the reason why her and her mom are moved to this new town. After a few more chapters it is pretty much dropped and never mentioned again. I would have liked to have seen where the author was intending that subplot to go.I know this is YA, but some of the sappy romance was just a bit too sweet at times for me. I enjoyed getting to know the side characters and other town residents as the main characters social circle expanded. The second half of the book really picked up the pace and really hit it's stride. I also felt it took a different turn that I was expecting, which is good! I would keep an eye out for the sequel just to see what these crazy kids get up to next.
