I don't know how to start this review. This book frustrated me. I felt that Margot could have been edited out of this book entirely. If it were only Mina's life experiences and death it would have better kept my attention. Margot was naïve and it was boring to read though her perspective. Every time I put the book down, it was in the middle of a Margot section. I also didn't like the amount of unanswered questions I was left with at the end.
Lots of spoilers ahead:
Why did Mr. Kim never contact Mina after he went to Chicago? Did he actually love her? Why did Mina forgive him so easily just because he was sick? Why did Margot just overlook the fact that Mrs. Baek killed her mom and then lied about it for months? Did the driver actually poison Margot or what? And what was his deal in general? Why was there a token Hispanic BFF that gave nothing to the story? In what world would a cop quit his job because it wasn't what he expected it to be? Every cop would quit if that were the case.
That being said, I did enjoy reading from Mina's perspective. This book could have been so much better.
