- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Loved the alternating perspectives! Also loved how their stories intersect in sometimes strange and random ways.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5At first I had a hard time getting into this one. But the further I read the more I started connecting with the characters. I love how everything came together. The constant switching was a little annoying, but mainly only because I wanted to see Tricia and Emerson more than anyone else.
