Honestly, not sure what I think of this book. It was so long, and not length long but boring long. Huge gaps of pointless commentary inbetween "major" events. Have one plot point hyped up the entire novel, yet in the end it doesn't really matter. Inane dialogue, cliches, and quite honestly, poorly constructed sentences. Plus, the annoyance of having every point dragged out for half a page and in case we still don't get it's spelled out for us. Yes, I know it's a YA book but still, I think after you say it the 7000th time any 13 year old would know that Ethan's different, the town is close-minded, etc. 
 On the plus side, I did actually like the characters mostly. Especially Ridley, I felt there was a backstory there I want to know. Some of the ideas were really good, they just could've been executed better. Plus, being narrated by a boy was a bit of a new spin, granted that boy was a whiny as most girls but still, teen novels with boys as the heroines? I mean, heroes. 
 Honestly, there was some things I liked, characters, lines, moments but those weren't enough to make up for the rest of it.
