Really a 2.5 rating. I wanted to really like this book. I was curious how it would end but I really thought the book lacked depth. I had saw that a lot of adults read this novel so I thought perhaps the novel would be suitable for adults but for me this is a YA book that goes for the younger crowd. The emotions that the characters felt just sort of fell flat. Even when there should be a pretty big emotional crisis or big decision the main character is just sort of.. meh whatever. Spoiler * Its just not cool when your grandson starts being interested in your former teenage sweetheart..It's weird. I saw the book going in that direction way before it happened and I was just.. Really hoping it wouldn't. It's just not cool.
