Read this during the crazy time of session and just don't remember much.  I think it was okay, not great.

The writing style was off, the premise of the book was a falicy, and the ending was rushed

This was meh for me, I think the story was good. But there was too much name branding and product placement for me to really get into it.

It being less than 300 pages, I thought it would be a cute little fast-paced read. Unfortunately, this book is terrible. The characters are all unlikable, the plot is dumb, and the ending is so far from reality.

If I could give this book a half a star or less, I would. Insufferable characters, weak plot, and no clear direction made for a less than desirable story. I wanted to like this because the overview seemed appealing, but unfortunately, it just fell incredibly flat for me.
