I don't seem to read as much YA since I have left my teenage years behind. Samantha Young is one of my favorites so I thought I should give The Fragile Ordinary a try. It kept me up reading in the wee hours of the night. I went through so many emotions reading this book.

This is also a book about teenagers, who sometimes make questionable decisions. I liked that all the teenage characters were fleshed out. They all made mistakes. I can obviously relate to Comet, the introvert and bookworm. She feels like a kindred spirit most of the time. We don't just get the story of her romance with Tobias. We also get the story of her relationships with her family and friends.

Will I ever read it again? Probably not, but I appreciate the journey and the message. This story has themes that include love, loss, growing up, bullying and drug use.





I voluntarily read an early copy.

4.5 stars

A heartwarming story of self-acceptance and the power of love to build confidence and be brave enough to step out of one's comfort zone.

Comet Caldwell is as unique a book character as her name suggests. Undeniably shy, she prefers the comfort of solitude and escaping into one of her many books she loves. Despite her desire to remain under the radar, she doesn't allow that to contain her individual fashion sense, and I liked how she allowed herself this freedom even if her own friend mocked her, at times. Comet's insecurities are challenged by her more outgoing friends, Vicki and Steph, usually to no avail. And it isn't until her new American classmate, Tobias King, enters her sphere, that she even considers stepping out of her shell.

Initially Tobias is stand-offish, but when forced to work with Comet, we see hints of the person he is deep down. Together, Comet and Tobias become a sounding board for their personal insecurities and the pain caused by their family members. Although living very different circumstances, they seek comfort in one another, which eventually leads to more. I loved how this relationship developed organically. It wasn't rushed and because of that, felt more real.

What surprised me the most was how Tobias and Comet handled Stevie, Tobias' cousin, who began a downward spiral as the couple's relationship developed. I liked how they approached him and the difficult situation together, and tried to "save him." It didn't work out as planned, which really was 100% Stevie's doing, and there was really nothing they could do at that point. But I loved how they stood by each other thru it all.

Bullying plays a big role in this story and I really liked how the author addressed it. With Comet protected by her friends and Tobias, along with the school preventing things from getting out of control. While Comet and Tobias lacked a strong parental unit to support them, they ultimately allowed their growing love story to carry them towards the success they both deserved.

This was a mature and honest story that could appeal to adults despite it being in the young adult genre. If you are looking for a story that explores the highs and lows of a teen girl as she discovers herself, this is worth checking out.

Another wonder YA book. I just can't get enough of the awkward Comet, she is like my spirit animal. The book takes place in Scotland, and I loved it, I thought it was super charming. Comet is awkward, a book worm, and generally feels unloved, and when the new boy (an American) starts school, it sets everyone off in a tizzy. I loved the by play, I loved how Comet was in her head so, so much, she really needed to reached mentally and Tobias, understood her. There is no sex, it's alluded to and talked about(not graphically) this is totally safe for 14+ years of age. There is some language, but not a lot, I mean it is a book about teenagers, they cuss.
This book was beautifully written, and executed. There were a few spots when the author seemed a little more focused on history lesson of the area, which for me, since yeah I am never going to go to Scotland, I enjoyed it, but it might lull for others. Other than that, this is a beautiful story of love, fulfillment, wishes, hopes, dreams, death and regrets. Told only in Comets POV.

The Fragile Ordinary bought back so many memories of my teenage years, of the hopes and dreams we all have at that age and the struggles that we all face where we live in a world of peer pressure to be cool, behave like something were not or to dress in a certain way. Comet Cauldwells faces all of these things but she also lives a life of loneliness and without love as her parents are so wrapped up in each other that they constantly forget about their only child and her needs. Comet is a shy girl that hides away from any drama at school hoping not to be seen and would rather be home reading a book than be out at parties with her two close friends, that is until Tobias King is thrown in her path and her world becomes chaos.
This is an emotional story that has some socially driven aspects, like that Comet is from a well off family and lives in a good area whereas Tobias King and his cousin Stevie are from a rough estate. It's almost an opposites attract love story, that she is a good girl and he is a bad boy. Having said that it's really an eye opener to the fact that you don't always have a perfect life just because of where you live and that you can be just as intelligent and smart regardless of your background.
This story is one that has a slow build at first while setting the scene but by the end of it you will be wondering OMG what the hell just happened?? Samantha Young is so good at writing stories such as this that open your eyes to how hard it is going through your teenage years, having to trust in people to do the right thing by you. There is lots pressure to be popular and to lose your virginity, while giving your heart away to someone, falling in love with them and hoping that they won't break it.
If you like books full of teenage angst and drama you will love this, as it's a hard hitting read that will totally blow your mind and leave you a hot mess by the end. Another fantastic book by this author.
5 Amazing Stars!

The Fragile Ordinary was my 1st book by Samantha Young. I wasn’t sure when I first started reading it how I was going to like it. All I can say is WOW! Once I got into it, I couldn’t stop reading it.
The author’s descriptions of everything from the characters to supporting information were unbelievable. Comet is not your ordinary high schooler and at first seems a bit quirky, but when you delve between her layers, she just wants to find her place in life. She loves books, and she lives life through her characters and stories. Her parents are consumed with each other, and she is left on her own a lot. She has two close friends, but doesn’t really fit in, but who does in high school but a select few.
Tobias is American and along with his mom move to Scotland after his father dies. He is popular from the start, and intrigues everyone. Comet can’t believe when they have some classes together. She feels something for a boy for the first time. A unique friendship starts between them. Comet helps Tobias overcome his father’s death and find a new life for himself. Tobias helps Comet come out of her shell, and find the courage to pursue her dreams, and not live life through her books.
This is a story of a group of kids trying to figure out life and find themselves in the process. I went through many emotions while reading it. This is not your ordinary story. I highly recommend this book, and hope my words give it justice.

Once in a while, I need a great YA story to remind me of those long ago days where life seemed just a bit more simple. With The Fragile Ordinary, I got just that and more. Samantha Young beautifully depicts the very crux of teenage angst with this tale of Comet Caldwell and her quest to figure out just exactly where she belongs.

From the very start, it was hard not to feel a kinship with the 16 year old Comet, the nerdy book lover who despite her less than attentive parents, has managed to have two best friends in Vicki and Steph. Two girls who try their hardest to get Comet to branch out of her comfort zone, which is her room lined with her favorite books. There is push and pull as Comet just wants to stay in her sanctuary yet at the same time she just wants to find her place in the world. Oh how I could commiserate with her! I remember those awkward years and all the mean girls nonsense that could destroy a day, week, month or even year of high school!

And then Tobias King enters her closed-off existence and suddenly our dear Comet has feelings she tries so hard to ignore but is a victim to each and every one. And who could blame her: a handsome American transfer student who both intrigues and confuses her almost daily is someone she can't help but notice. The Author perfectly relays all the confusion, the muddled emotions that a teenager like Comet feels and oh my goodness did I cringe often for her. Remembering all too well what it felt like to be in like with someone who feels so far out of your league. But at the same time as Comet is dealing with all this insecurity, she's starting to come out of her shell in the most unexpected of ways and those stolen moments with Tobias were some of the most beautiful in this story.

We get inside Comet's world and all of the pitfalls of living your life as a 16 year old are there in all its painful glory. I was in awe at how she found a way to break free of her self-imposed chains and became the Comet she deserved to be. This book is at times heartbreaking and yet there is such hope in the Comet's discovery that she is worthy of all the goodness. Watching as she realizes that she has the strength to overcome her naivete and her struggles with fitting in was worth all the pain. She is such a good person without being overly sweet and I was beyond thrilled those around her finally knew it too. She steps out of that afore-mentioned comfort zone and what is on the other side is never easy but is oh so worth it.

This is a tale of perseverance and of the power of friendship and love. I found it hard to let go once the last page was read and I am hopeful we hear from this eclectic cast of characters again in the future.

It's never easy portraying a time in one's life that was perhaps a bit mired in heartache but the Author took a bit of her own past and gave it a voice that exemplified all that it means to be a teenager. Set in Scotland, I loved the comparisons to an American high school and the realization that no matter where one lives, all that goes with being 16 remains quite familiar.

A well-written book that is more than worth your time, Samantha Young has created one very memorable story that I will not soon forget.

5 solid stars!

Wow .. this book blew me away. I'm an emotional person but these days a story has to really move me before I cry over the characters. This book, I cried - the storyline, the characters and what they had been through and dealing with it was so raw and real. Samantha's writing is exceptional and the way she writes has you there right along with them. 
Such a beautiful story of finding love when you don't expect it. I adored Comet and her name suited her perfectly. My heart broke for her with how she grew up and what she missed out on. On the outside she didn't care what anyone thought of her and I loved this about her. 
Tobias was there at the right time and took Comet by surprise with how well they got on.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and could not put it down. This is defintely one of my top reads for 2018.

Remember when I thought I couldn't read YA novels because it'd be too much like being at work? Yeah, me either. JK. I was a fool. I probably missed out on so many great reads because I was too stubborn to try them and I'm so glad that I'm no longer in that mindset, especially when I read books like The Fragile Ordinary.



The Fragile Ordinary has so many things my students will love and I anticipate that when I am able to put a copy in my classroom lending library, it won't ever stay on the shelf for long. Told from through the eyes of Comet: a Scottish teen who feels like an outsider looking in, a poet but nobody knows it, a lonely only child, and a huge book junkie, we get a year in the life--and what a year it is. She grows from this young woman who seems so timid in some ways, and so self-aware in others, to someone who becomes someone who is starting to make the world her own. Through this tumultuous year we see a very realistic look at teen friendships and romances and the conflicts that arise from those, as well as an horrific bout of bullying, and various types of families and the struggles they all face as different family units. It's the heartfelt examination of all these things that I think will ring real and true for many of my students and it's another Samantha Young novel that I can't wait to share with them.

*review links to come when review is live*

This story. I honestly am at a loss for words at how much I loved this story and connected with this one. There is so much about this angsty story that I fell in love with. Comet is such a unique character that I connected to on so many levels. I was that girl. Though never had to wear uniforms, but I was that quirky one that only had a couple friends and even then, that was give or take. The bullying was off the charts as well, just like Comet. And my nose was always in a book. Comet is an old soul to me. She is very eclectic as well. Enter the new man on campus, Tobias. He has the tortured, sullen teen boy thing down pat but with good reason. The way these two connect, it was stunning. I love how these two characters develop as the story progresses. The teen drama off the charts and I found them reacting exactly like a teen would.
The concept alone of this story is a beautiful one of coming of age and coming out of your shell. Developing yourself into what you want to be and not how they want you to be. My heart breaks for everything that both Comet and Tobias go through. I could feel their pain in the words that the author wrote. I could feel their anger and so much more. The ending though. While young, I love that the author finished it the way she did. It leaves you wondering and that is the most beautiful thing about this story. They are so young and so much ahead of them, it is best to leave you with wonder but also awe. I am usually not a YA reader, but the words that this author gives us, leaves you breathless and begging for more so much! Snag this book up!

This books was an eye opening and insightful look into being a teenager in this day and age.  It didn't shy away from the hard topics; peer pressure, sex, drugs, family issues, bullying-both face to face and online.   It went over all these topics and was brutally honest about what teenagers face daily.  I was extremely impressed by how Samantha Young made all of these topics part of the storyline and yet it never seemed overwhelming or difficult to follow the multiple storylines playing out amongst the characters in this book.

Comet, even at sixteen, was completely relatable to me.  She spent a lot of time burying her head in books and escaping into a reality that made her life a little easier to bare.  She spent most of her time inside her own head, worried about what others thought of her and scared to put herself out there to be judged by those around her.  That being said she was also an extremely strong character.  She knew who she was but, needed that extra push to be confident in her own skin.

This book really pushed you to take a look at the people around you, the ones you may have judged without really knowing them, and revaluate your reaction to them.  It made you think about what your judgement of them really said about you and not what it said about them.

This was a fantastic coming of age story that tugged at the heart strings.  Made you root for the misunderstood.  Made you stop and think about how your actions, thoughts, and words effected those around you.  It showed you what real love is and how selfish those who have found it can be.

I enjoyed this but I didn’t love it like I usually love Sam’s books. I think this is because I had a hard time warming up to Comet, she was very unlikable in the beginning. As I write this review, I think my main problem with Comet is she was probably too realistic. She grated on my nerves at times, I wanted to comfort her when her parents wouldn’t, and I wanted to parent her like I do my own kids when she made a mistake. It is rare that you get a realistic character like Comet, and I think you expect someone a little more fictional. She grew as a character and she grew on me. Still a good read. If you like coming of age contemporaries, with a lot of teenage angst, this is the book for you.

Comet has absentee parents. They exist, they provide shelter, food, and the basic necessities for her but there is no love or companionship from them. They haven’t provided a safe, loving home for her which has stunted her social skills. They treat her like she is invisible so that is how she prefers to interact with society. She would rather read and exist in the world her books create for her than in the real world. I very much can relate to wanting to escape reality for the world that books create; it is very much why I love to read. She has 2 close friends, but bails on them constantly if there is a social situation involved. She prefers invisibility and anonymity to attention of any sort. The relationships with her friends are rocky at best as there is push and pull throughout the book. I do like that both the friends and Comet weren’t blameless in the troubles in their friendship and that those issues were addressed. Comet owned up to her part in the demise of their friendship and they actually worked on their issues. I like that by the end of the book, she was able to own up to the mistakes she made, but also call out those around her that had done things wrong. Comet was able to stand on her own two feet and speak up for herself. She finds her confidence and herself.

Tobias is the handsome new boy at school. He’s American, and he hangs around the troublemakers at school. He is in all of Comet’s upper level classes, but he doesn’t take school seriously and he’s very disrespectful to his teachers. Comet immediately thinks he’s a bad guy, but when they are paired on a project she gets to know him a bit better. Comet learns why Tobias is disgruntled and he is nothing like what she thought. She also learns that Tobias’ cousin Stevie, who she thinks is nothing but a thug, isn’t actually a bad guy he just doesn’t always make great decisions or hang with the best crowd. Through Tobias, Comet learns that the world is not the same a novel and that hiding isn’t doing her any favors. With his help Comet opens her eyes to the world and sees things in a different light. Tobias after spending some time with Comet, realizes that he actually likes school and misses the person he was before moving to Scotland and begins to find a balance between his old life and his new one.

Comet has all of these great ambitions but no plan to get there. I feel like that is completely acceptable for a teenager, and with parents like hers she has no one to guide her. It takes quite a while for her teacher to point out that if she wants to be a writer and go to university for that someone will actually want to read her writing and it will take more than just good grades to get in. I found her constant lying to her friends and judgment of everyone very irritating in the first half of the book. This is where the coming of age and character growth comes in. This is addressed well and she does learn from her actions. She is extremely anti-social, yet she judges everyone on what she thinks she knows and what she sees. She would rather read than go out with friends (which I can totally relate to), yet she holds everyone to fairy tale prince standards. She dresses with a very unique fashion sense (contradictory to her desire to be invisible), yet judges everyone on their own choice of clothing. She never once takes a chance to really get to know people until about halfway through the book when Tobias finally calls her out on it. This is where her character really starts to grow. She begins to realize that she can’t lie to her friends all the time or she will lose them, she can’t judge the proverbial book by its cover, and if she really wants to do something with her writing she can’t hide and just go to school and read in her room all the time.

I recevied an ARC of this book from the author in an exchange for an honest opinion.
Wow! I'm speechless. This book made me feel everything. The happines. The turmoil. The angriness. The sadness. The acceptness.

It is an amazing book. I can relate to Comet on so many different levels. I, too lived vicariously through books for so long, and still do sometimes. It is amazing how she chose her books over a party where she couldn't be herself. I love that. And respect that.

I loved how Samantha started every chapter with Comet's poems. I love them. I have pictured my favorite of them. They are amazing. They have true meaning and are related to the story. I was never the one for the poems. But I love Comet's. They are current and fresh.
This girl is everything and more. She stays true to herself. Yes of course she changed throughout the book. But for the better.

Tobias on the other hand is conflicted and doesn't know what to do with himself. I was angry at him, but at the same time tried to understand him. This was really hard on him. He has a sweet spot for Comet. I loved how they got together through friendship.

The title makes so much sense. And those words are imprinted in my mind now. They are true to the last word.

"Before you.
I believed real, true, glorious living
Was in adventure.
Was in the extraordinary.
But I have learned that time is not so forgiving,
And the real beauty of life is in the fragile ordinary."

By Comet, The Fragile Ordinary

I could go on and on about this book. But you have to read it to know everything, I don't want to reveal too much. I flippin' loved this book.

this was such an outstanding read!
I loved comet so much!
this story has so much emotion, sexy, swoony and all the feels in it.
if your a lover of ms young this is a must read or even new to her this is the perfect book to start with.

4.5 Stars
What a rollercoaster of emotions I have coursing through my body at the moment. Comet Caldwell is a bookworm, she’s sweet, shy and quirky. I loved her quirky side, her dress sense and most definitely her shoe sense, she’s my kind of girl. Tobias King is arrogant, cocky and he’s in with a bad crowd. As much as Comet is drawn to him she decides he is not book boyfriend material. That is until they become friends (secret friends at that), and everything changes, shy Comet finally comes out of herself and finds her voice. A wonderful story about self discovery, first love and friendship. A very emotional story, especially during the latter chapters, I have to admit I shed more than a few tears. Why not five stars you may ask, here’s why.
The first half of the story I give 4 stars, I wasn’t truly invested in Comet and I couldn’t relate to her. Then during the second half of the story, Comet finally came out of her shell and took charge of her life, a definite 5 star performance. I loved the confidence she gained. Tobias too, during the second half turned into what Comet would describe as book boyfriend material. I couldn’t wait to find out where their relationship would take them and which of their friends and family would stand by their sides.

The Fragile Ordinary needs to win an award for character development and relateable characters.
It was the perfect blend between a cute lovestory, important topics and getting to know yourself and growing up.
I loved every second of reading this book. I got sucked into the story from the first page, which probably had to do with the main character Comet, and I could not put it down cause I got so immeresed in the story. The writing was amazing and you could connect with every single character of the story because of how greatly written they all were. Just like the pacing was exactly right and I never felt like the story got rushed or stretched out. And I loved the blend of humor, cutesy lovestory and really important serious topics.

Comet is by far my favorite character in this story and I could relate to her so much. I saw a lot of me in her when I was her age and I could understand her struggles perfectly. It is amazing how much she grew during the story and overcame her shyness and struggle to say her mind while at the same time staying true to herself. Plus it's a huge plus that she is a complete booknerd.

Tobias was so cute and really mature for his age after he overcame his struggles. His interaction with Comet was so sweet and he never acted like an immature child like so many other teenage boys.

Normally I don't really care that much about side characters but in this book we got so many infos about them that I even felt their pain and was rooting for them. Stevie broke my heart with his story and Vicki was an amazing best friend who also grew a lot during the story.

I have to say I wasn't a fan of the plot twist at 90% but I was really shocked by what happened. I understand that it was somewhat necessary for both Tobias and Comet's growth but I felt like it could've been done with something else.
But overall this was a perfect book which really touched my heart and you should definitely read it.

This was a sweet story that was much more emotional than I anticipated. It is full of young love, heartache, and the ebbs and flows of a high school student who is trying to find her place in the world. 

This is a fun coming of age story, that will wrap you in a warm hug as you follow Comet as she blossoms into a young woman, as she falls in love and as she confronts her parents.

This book takes place in Scotland and some of the characters are written with an accent, which made me read the story slowly at times as I got hung up on what words the different chracters with thicker accents were saying.

As a whole, the cast of characters was well written, but I personally found some of the secondary cast of characters to be a bit annoying at times. I really enjoyed Comet, Tobias and Vicki's characters. 
There were a few times in the story that I felt were a bit boring. 

If you enjoy reading young adult contemporary romance, than this book is a good and light summer read that I know that you will just fly through!

All in all I enjoyed this story, but would recommend it for readers who are older than 16 as there are a few inappropriate scenes (not graphic).

Thank you to the publisher (Harlequin Teen) for sending me an e-ARC of this book via Netgalley.

I received this eARC from netgalley. Samantha Young uses universal themes of love, fear, and friendship to help the reader connect with her characters. Comet is a sixteen year old who would rather live in the worlds she finds on her bookshelves rather than stay in her reality where she is invisible to those around her. She has her two best friends, her neighbor, and her English teacher who seem to be the only ones who take notice. When she has to complete a school assignment with the new boy in school, she is forced to confront her fears to help realize her dreams and be comfortable with the world around her. Through Comet and Tobias as well as family and friends, Samantha takes you on a journey of self-worth, discovery, and love with the twists and turns as well as the pulling of heartstrings you come to expect from this author.

There were parts of the story that were very descriptive and it hindered the plot by disrupting scenes and the flow. It took awhile for Comet and Tobias to connect. As soon as that spark was lit, it was very instant from the like stage of their relationship to the love stage.

I did appreciate the chance to read this stand alone novel and look forward to the next adventure.

I really enjoyed this story. The characters were well written and developed. I liked Comet a lot, she was a loveable character and I was rooting for her throughout the book, whether it was about her relationship with Tobias, her parents, friends, etc. I just wanted her to feel more accepted and loved. This book tugged at my heartstrings for sure. Thank you to Harlequin Teen and NetGalley for the advanced copy!

I got an ARC of this book.

When I saw that this book was available for ARC reviews I was beyond excited. Maddy had reviewed the book and had given it a great star rating so I thought I had to give it a shot too. Maddy doesn't hold punches when a bunch isn't right for her. 

The first thing that drew me into the book was the main character Comet. She was shy, had a bad relationship with her parents, and she loved books more than anything else. I could relate to her so hard, a lot more than anyone should be able to relate to a girl who is ignored by her family and is neglected. The way her family was handled was so amazing. I wanted more. I wanted to know what had happened to her mom. I wanted to know how they had gotten together. I wanted to hear the whole story of them in a whole new book. I don't like them, but I want to understand them. 

Comet's room is pretty much my dream room. Who wouldn't want built in bookcases that went from floor to ceiling with a library ladder across it all? I would be in heaven. The only way to make it better would be to have that in a tower. 

The story was dramatic and took really wild turns. The bullying was intense and had a lot of sexual elements to it, which only made it even more terrifying. There was drug use and death. There was just so much happening at any given moment. The love story was what held it all together, but there was just so much going on. The story jumped between a YA romance and an adult drama. 

The sexuality was frank and awkward at first, which I greatly appreciated. There was talk of birth control and condoms which are a huge plus for me. The sex didn't happen on page, but it was heavily implied that it happened. The sex scenes themselves were just poetry about connecting and feelings. There were no body parts or anything that would make it inappropriate for any age level to read. Speaking of poetry, I liked how almost every chapter opened with a poem that seemed to address the stuff that was happening in Comet's life at that time. It was well done. The chapter that didn't have a poem was in a time that Comet wasn't writing poetry so it was a wonderful little nod to her mental state and her creativity. Little details like that really got to me. 

Overall, this book was a fun read. It felt a bit dense at time, but that was because Comet was very intelligent. She would observe things, she would comment on things, she talked well above her years for vocabulary which was really refreshing. She was clearly on the cusp of adulthood. It was this great middle ground of coming of age by choice and by force. The characters may not have evolved much, but they took a beating and showed real pain.

Okay, I gotta be honest here, I’m not a huge YA genre kinda gal, but when you’re presented with the opportunity to read a Samantha Young book, you toss caution to the wind and go for it. What I don’t care for in this genre of books is the immaturity of the characters, because let’s face it, we are talking about high school kids, and I know it’s been along time since I was a teenager, I didnt remember going through the emotional turmoil that these characters did. But then something happened when I started reading further into the book, little snippets of what Comet and Tobias were going through with young love, the competitive nature of your best friends who would either be angry with you for not going with the flow or upset because they felt you were putting someone else besides them first and foremost, or the horrible way kids can be with bullying and meanness. It all came rushing back, and quite frankly caught me by surprise. Stevie’s situation was heartbreaking, we all knew someone like him in one form or another, but to deal with the pain as a teenager is overwhelming. The relationships that some of the unfortunate teenagers had with their own parents, not always positive, and the fact that it only takes a handful of teachers to make the most positive impression in our young kids to want to learn and get through the tough times. Another revelation came to me as I was reading this story as it was coming to an end, I felt like the author was putting a bit of her own childhood out there for people to judge, the insecurities she must have felt when writing this book, but how proud of herself she must have been when she finally finished it with with the very emotional ending. My suspicions were confirmed when I read the acknowledgments, my admiration only grew for this author after reading it.

This book is very well worth the read, it’s about young love, difficult relationships and situations, tragedy, and learning that life goes on, even if you are only 17 years old. I’m not going to say that I’ll run out and start reading this genre now that I’ve read this incredible story, but I will say that Samantha Young is one hell of an author to get me to not only finish this book, but to have lived a little piece of my own childhood in the process. Well done Samantha! . Read this book, even if you aren’t a fan of YA, you are in for quite a ride.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this book.
