2-3 stars or something?? this book was ok i guess. i liked the inventive and pretty writing style and the two voices. i didn't like that i knew what would happen from the very beginning on, and that vivian was the classic manic pixie dreamgirl. also i kind of didn't GET anything from this book and the story was just too sad.
