If I want unrealistic I'll read a fantasy book or something, not a NA.
Of course it should be MORE then the real world, more drama, more romance.. But this was all just a bit too much for me. I had a couple of moments that I thought were really weird and NOT within the realm of realistic or at least possibly. Just too much drama for the drama of it (and yes I normally like that, but with this one I didn't. It made the plot kind of unbelievable. And I want my NA to be at least believable to get into it.
Also, I've seen this multiple times in NA books, but when someone harms you, abuses you, you should never let them get away with that. Yes, yes, there were circumstances, but still. I do not think it is right. The way they handled it made it only right for her (mostly), but that man is still out there. He can still do that all over again to someone else, hell, he can still do his job while he really should not be doing it anymore. That is just selfish.
But apart from the problems I had with this book I did enjoy reading it. The main characters were nice, if not slightly dull.. But I liked them good enough. They has some depth (though not that much as I would have liked..)
You know, I think I got a bit spoiled with This Ends with Us. I thought it was an amazing read, just beautiful, but this one is not as good.. I can't help to compare then and find this one lacking..
So well, 3 stars, because even though it was not that believable, I did enjoy reading it.. Though not as much as This Ends with Us XD
