My Rating: 4.5/5
I didn't know anything about this book before reading it so Travis was a bit of a shock.
This book tells the love story of Abby and Travis and the increasingly dependant, obsessive nature of it.
I read this book in one long sitting and so the rollercoaster nature of their relationship started to get overwhelming towards the end.
Travis is a character that seems to be the common thread amongst the negative reviews of this book. I didn't have any problem with him as even though there are real guys out there like him, Travis is fictional.
The only thing that annoyed me about this book was the use of the nickname Pigeon. It was never explained where he got the nickname from and it was completely overused.
The strongest element of this book was the character's back stories. Travis and Abby don't seem to have much in common until their lives are more deeply explored.
Overall this was a very tense and compelling read and because of the intensity of it, it remains in your head days after finishing it.
