I've had this book in my TBR pile for years and years, so I was glad to finally get to it, but it was a very big disappointment.
From the prologue, the reader is given a very contrived coincidence involving two besties, then expected to be eager to go back 20+ years to find out what led up to it...No thanks. I might've enjoyed this when I was twelve, but the narrative doesn't assume a very well-read audience will be reading.
I can't go higher than 1.5 stars for this one.

Decent. Some of the connections are too forced and it's by no means a great book, but not awful. The characters just aren't very likable.
