“Where to?” Blake asks.
“Anywhere but here,” I say.
Seventeen-year-old Bliss Walker has been stuck in a home that doesn’t feel like hers for six years. Ever since Mama dropped her off and never came back.
Then, the summer before her senior year of high school, two things happen: Mama returns out of the blue, and Bliss meets Blake, a boy who listens like everything she has to say is worth hearing.
It should be a dream come true. But as the summer spins on, Bliss finds herself facing a painful choice: between the life she’s always longed for, and the world she’s starting to make for herself.
My Thoughts
DNF
★★☆☆☆ (2.5)
I tried so hard to read the book but I just couldn't get my mind on it. The characters felt a little flat to me and not as 3D as I would have liked. I really didn't like River but Bliss was just average but I feel like the book has potential. But I will say, I really thought the book cover was gorgeous.
