I would give Taking Chances 4.5 stars, I would of gave it 5 stars but some things did not play out the way I wanted them to. As others stated in their reviews, this was a roller coaster ride for your emotions. You go from happy, sad, angry and shocked throughout the book. I have to say that this is not a book for teenagers, there was a lot of sex and in my opinion should be more for adult readers. 
 It was a page turner and I read through it pretty fast. There was some things that were unrealistic but also some really tough things that Harper had to go through. I really have a lot more to say about this book, but I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't read it. I definitely recommend this book to read:) I never read anything by Molly McAdams and I will be looking for other books by her!
