This book was weird and twisted and sad and, and, and.... although Ames' complaining and naivety get severly annoying at times, you can totally see where she's coming from. It seems everyone in her life has betrayed her and then expects her to take it on the chin. Then along comes Marc. Oh Marc.... he is straight up crazy... not like 'oh i like em crazy', but like 'RUN GIRLLLLLLL. NOW!' crazy. He reeled Ames into his crazy world little by little and all the while I'm shaking my head wishing she would wake the hell up. But oddly enough, i was mad at how his plans were foiled in the end. Lol
