This book was the kind of novel that you sit down with and finish in one evening, however, that evening is actually 6 hours long because you didn't check the time or pace yourself and well...you'll be tired the next day but it'll be worth it. The main character made some decisions that had me fearing for her life while simultaneously yelling at her for making dangerous choices (is this how my parents feel?). But she made me laugh and relate. Like, really, really relate...finding your path is hard. Having the 'perfect' siblings is hard. But I wanted Katie to succeed and find happiness and maybe hit it off with that nice cop she met. I loved the writing style, and the main characters, though frustrating at times, were interesting. I loved Katie's abilities with the cards and how she used them like a superhero.
