I was super excited about this book but it wasn't as amazing as I had hoped it would be. The format didn't really work for me. The epistolary format just made everything feel a bit distant. There were some really great things about the book as well though - I really liked the concept and most of the characters, and there were some really, really moving and well-written scenes.

Full review coming soon!

Joe I totally agree. The diary format was a poor choice for the book; it removed the reader from the action.


Alyx Campbell This. Exactly my feelings.


Shella I was not sure about the format at first either and then just fell in love with Nisha and thought it was an amazing book.
