I listened to this book, although I liked the story, I didn't enjoy the main character for several reasons. Way too many times she described peoples physical reactions, "dipping my chin, I took a deep breath, air lodged in my throat, my gaze lifted to hers" and on and on. Molly was constantly conjecturing about an event that likely was't going to happen and she ran from her problems repeatedly. If the characters in this book had simply talked to each other the book could've been shorter and I would've enjoyed it more.
