Goodreads Synopsis:
Love can be a dangerous thing... Hanna simply wants to be loved. With a head plagued by hallucinations, a medicine cabinet full of pills, and a closet stuffed with frilly, violet dresses, Hanna's tired of being the outcast, the weird girl, the freak. So she runs away to Portero, Texas in search of a new home.
But Portero is a stranger town than Hanna expects. As she tries to make a place for herself, she discovers dark secrets that would terrify any normal soul. Good thing for Hanna, she's far from normal. As this crazy girl meets an even crazier town, only two things are certain: Anything can happen and no one is safe.
My Thoughts:
At first this book confused me and honestly even through the story or at the end nothing was crystal clear but it all fit together. I wasn't sure that I was going to be able to finish this book at first because of how strange it was but it actually ended up keeping my interest. I liked the weirdness a cloudy plot which is unusual for me, because I like things explained till the are clear. I liked the main character Hanna because she had serious flaws just like a real person would. Wyat the male lead was flawed as well but strong, smart, funny and romantic. Rosalee put on a hard facade only to later to reveal her soft side.
