The premise of this book sounded so fascinating, but I ended up being really disappointed by the execution.

I found the plot nonsensical, the prose overwrought and littered with unconvincing, overly-emotional reactions, and the narrator inconsistent and ultimately not very believable. The road trip seemed to drag on forever, and the main character's endless digressive rants frequently talked and talked and talked without actually saying much of anything.

One of my biggest YA disappointments of the year, unfortunately.
