 This was possibly one of the most depressing books I have read in a long time. I mean I don't know if I didn't connect with it because I never did the leaving for college thing or the potential break-up because of distance thing, but Clare depressed the crap out of me. She was such doom and gloom through just about every page. She over reacted to everything and expected Aidan to have all the answers and it really got on my nerves. I had to remind myself a few times that I was reading about teenagers which is not something I enjoy when I read a book. I prefer to just read it and not worry about ages but I couldn't do it with this book. The side characters were the bright spot for me (and the end which I wish there was more of in the book). They were way more interesting and weren't wrapped up in themselves so much. I mean I was 50% in and *I* wanted to break-up with Clare. I should have trusted my gut when I saw the mixed reviews but I didn't and found out the hard way that this book was not for me.
