Holy shit that was creepy. 
 Disclaimer: my friendship with Nenia has no bearing whatsoever on my review or feelings about this book 
 So. For the vast majority of this, I was, in all honesty, kind of bored. Nothing really seemed to be happening, besides Gavin being creepy and Val being stupid about him - I get it, she's 14, he's hot. He's still a fucking terrifying asshole. There's a massive amount of bad decisions on Val's part, and I wanted to shake her and yell at her and tell her to tell someone and stay the hell away from Gavin. 
 That being said, I'm definitely ineterested in reading the rest of the series. Hopefully Val has smartened up...
