I would never tell or encourage a person not to read a book , what bothered me, may not bother you. 
 So I was reading another book, and a friend I used to work with asked if I would read this with her, seeing how my book fund is low until Friday, I reluctantly said yes. 
 Having an addiction to reading is expensive. #thestruggleisreal. 
 In saying that, I found this book more disappointing then I would a KU book. 
 So before I go into why I didn't enjoy this book, let me start with what I did like. 
 Ryder blushes, while I never thought I find that endearing, I did 
 Mallory and Ryder's first date 
 My favorite commercial was mentioned. 
 So...... 
 Let me start by saying I HATE too much inner dialogue, I end up looking like 
 I knew this was going to happen because Mallory doesn't speak a lot. It just felt like this book could of had less ramblings. 
 So to insert a pun here because I can't resist, The problem with forever, is that it took forever. LOL 
 Sorry 
 Sooo how do I say this, without sounding like an insensitive twat? 
 Mallory had a very tough childhood, and it makes it hard for her to use her words. She was taught a young age to always be quiet. While I understand, the stutter was tiresome, she even stuttered in her inter dialogue, I noticed even other characters started to stutter. 
 Now in saying that, I don't have a problem with a person who stutters, 
 but when writing a a book ... .... .... .... .... it....is ....hard...... to...... keep......reading........ when....there.....is ........all.... this... going... on 
 I'm not sure how this could have been avoided, but I loathed it. 
 Paige.... See, I could never be mad at Paige, because well, she's not wrong. If Rider was my boyfriend, I would have been the Paige in this story. I was more interested in Paige then, I was Mallory. 
 All in all, as a whole this book was just a little too much for my taste, and this is why I avoid YA
