I’m pretty sure he is the antagonist of this book, and you’re not supposed to like him, but I loathed James.
This wasn’t a very major issue, but merely something I had to point out. However, because of the plot and storyline, I still wanted to know what happens to Claire, and what the ending looked like. When you could have simply finished the issue on a page, it droned over for a chapter. I’m all for descriptions – but sometimes it was pulled over for too long, and had unnecessary pages dedicated to the same event/problem. But what I mean by stretching is Keyes excessively elaborated on certain events, to the point where it got boring. There was also a lot of stretching (sorry I don’t know exactly how to say it). I was expecting this book to be a chick-flick, but it was a lot deeper and more meaningful than what you would usually expect from one.
Her friends were always there to support her, whereas the toxicity in her and James’ relationship is described to the point where you’re crying for Claire, because you feel sorry for her poor, cough *misguided* cough soul. Claire’s family was so unique, and everyone had a completely distinct personality.
Everything was described so well, you could form and imagine conversations that might have taken place between two characters. I haven’t read a lot of books like this one before, so I wasn’t sure what exactly to expect when it came to Claire’s relationships with the people around her. The characters, the way they interact with others, and what they mean to you. They stick with you long after the story ends, and I don’t know about you, but that’s one of my favourite things about book. I found this awesome, because it really helped you understand the relationships between each character, and long after you finish the story, you can still remember their unique traits, and what made them special. When a character was introduced, by the next few chapters, you knew everything about them, their personality, and their view on the problem unfolding. Each of the characters were well-developed, and it wasn’t like you only knew them at surface level.
