Ratings and reviews

very poorly written goes back and forth on ideas uses the same words over and over again never straight to the point it's the kind of book that's supposed to be 100 pages but turned out to be 800

ID love to hear the book but unfortunately it won't play past chapter 4

This book seemed to drag on & didn't get right to the point
