I liked it.

Started out really strong and couldn’t put it down. Then things settled a bit and I found Ella a little frustrating. Picked right back up though for the last 1/3 or so.

Definitely had some “first novel” weaknesses about it. Things seemed to be figured out a little too easily. Could have done without the romantic drama. But hey, it’s fiction, it was entertaining. Definitely worth the $2 it cost me from the used bookstore.
