I placed a hold on a digital copy of this book from my local library. At midnight eastern the book became available. I told myself that I was going to go to bed and read it in the morning. Then I read the first 13 chapters in 1 sitting. I finished this morning. 
 I think I had misread the description, because I thought the book was going to be about Sydney bonding with David Ibarra's family and assumed that the conflict was going to be related to them finding out who her brother was. That wasn't the case at all, but I spent a good chunk of the book waiting for her to start hanging out with his family. 
 Like many of the mothers in Sarah Dessen books, Sydney's mom is very controlling. Like many of the older siblings in Sarah Dessen books, Sydney's brother is a wild child in contrast to Sydney's more restrained personality. It's a little formulaic but that's not such a bad thing. 
 One unique part to this book was the character Ames. Creepy right from the start, it wasn't clear at first if he was meant to be one of those guys who is just a little too eager and comes off as creepy, or if he really was a super sketch monster.
