For the first three-fourths of the book, honestly, I was a bit bored. And confused. It kept jumping from flashbacks to the present and so forth, almost without any warning. And the quality of the writing had me thinking Twilight all over again. 
 But when it finally started getting good, which was in chapter thirty, I decided that maybe the book wasn't so bad after all. All in all, it wasn't, and I really enjoyed the ending. I'm even thinking about buying the next one. But if you're looking for a quick, fun read, I recommend you go somewhere else.
