A decent enough read with an interesting twist at the end which made me question what I would do or how I would feel in that situation.

The story however does happen extraordinarily fast, which makes huge parts of it unbelievable. When Steph and Connor break up, there is not much time (only a few hours) before Steph has moved on. Similarly, her and Jamie's relationship moves incredibly quickly and makes it difficult to empathise with the main character as her friends are telling her to slow down, which she blatantly ignores. Another jarring part of her character are her inability to stand up to her awful family and I found myself becoming annoyed with Steph for most of the book. The job promotion is also ridiculous...

That being said, it's a nice easy read for the New Year season and touches on issues not often dealt with in contemporary fiction.
