This just wasn't good. No character development, no emotional connection. Random characters thrown at you. Part 1 was all from Adelaide's perspective and then the rest of the book has more of an omniscient/alternating POV. The time jumps and jumps between scenes (including immediately before they reach their climax, with no resolution given) were very annoying. And I think the plot itself was deeply flawed-- this "I need to hide from my past" vibe while also telling anyone and everyone where she's from, as well as what's actually in the trunk, was just... dumb. The only thing I can appreciate is that the writing was generally good. But if you can't back that up with good plot or characters, there's not much left for me.
