A very short read, and pretty to the point. I wasn't bored while reading it, but it I wanted it to go a little deeper into back stories. Kept my attention though!

I love the idea behind this book! Please keep in mind that this was written for a 2.0 reading level, my critiques are from a person with a very high reading level, who is used to books that are about 500 pages. I fully believe that this is a good book for people at that reading level. I am reviewing it as if I had picked this up from the library which is how I do every book.
I wanted so badly to like it, but I just couldn't. Who doesn't like a good bad-girl likes bad-boy but they both aren't bad trope? (Okay maybe I made that up but still!) The plot was great, but I think the length of this book really hurt it. I feel like other than Adele, Ferguson, Andy, the other characters had little to no purpose to the book. Also her dad?? What was going on with that whole plot line? Again, I think if it was maybe a bit longer and there was some more character development this would have been amazing.
Overall I can not say I would recommend this to anyone, but if you want a quick read this will always be an option (no seriously, I read the whole thing once I finished my final, in the span of an hour)

Super fast read about a girl with some personal demons who ends up at essentially a camp for troubled youth. She catches feelings for one of the boys, eve though she’s been warned to stay away from him. It turns out he’a not what everyone says he is and they end up teaching each other some valuable life lessons.
