Review: A lot of switching POVs, a lot of present-past switching. Somewhere in all this there was a story.

I found the writing style of this book tedious. The subject matter was not so bad to read and it was meant to be shocking, which it was, considering the age of the fictional characters. What I did not understand at all was the ending, here was a chance for the author to make her characters shine, but instead she just left 100% of the story about the tortured, conflicted moods and moments. Too bad, a skilled author would have been able to turn the story around and make the reader believe in the love story and the character's ability to be happy. Instead all I got was a feeling that these two would not survive together, especially since the duration of the present was spent with her recovering when he left her alone to deal with an uncertain future. Not a great book, not something I would recommend, but for keeping my attention until the end, even though the veiled part of it was the veil over the readers eyes, I give it 3 stars.
