Too soon,The one storyline about Jane and her father I liked. The other storyline that was essentially copied straight from real life I did not like. Too soon, Ashley, too soon. She barely even TRIED to change anything/disguise what she was doing. Which is profiting off of a current tragedy and families who haven't gotten justice yet, he hasn't even gone to trial yet!

FairyLoot put out a BEAUTIFUL special edition for May's YA box. The title? After reading the book, also doesn't make sense. I don't think I'll be interested in the sequel.
I received this advance copy for promotional purposes. #lbyrpartner...more
