Jackson was an insignificant character we knew nothing about yet Mercy seems to have all these feelings towards him that aren't explained or justified. This stood out mostly because there was so much adult things going on and this book did not feel like YA fiction at all considering that Mercy was 20.Ģ.) Was the 'romance' between Mercy/Peter/Jackson supposed to be a love triangle type thing because I did not get it at all. Her thoughts were incessant and her constant questions was annoying.

She was impulsive and reckless (which I suppose most people assume teenagers to be) but I get the feeling the author wanted her to be perceived as 'strong' and more mature but that never registered to me. Is it young adult? Is it adult? Mercy was 20 years old for the majority of the book but a lot of her dialogue and actions read younger. In this review, there will be SPOILERS so be forewarned.įirst things first, a minor but important issue I had with this book is that I'm not sure the writer knew what he wanted this book to be.

But on the other hand, I had too many issues with this book that I felt-with a better editing job-would have made such a difference. On one hand, it was entertaining enough to keep me interested to the very end. I just finished this book and honestly I'm not sure how I feel about it.
