Pine River

This was middle of the road for me. I really like Tijan's books but I think this is a forgettable one for me. It very much felt like she was trying to make an “updated” version of the Fallen High series in a standalone. None of the characters stood out to me besides the FMC and that's probably because there were just too many of them in one book.

(Side note - I don't like the cover. It's SO photoshopped with the background, the atrocious font, the pose of the model looks unnatural, and what is with that broken heart icon?? Nothing looks cohesive. As someone who's made a few book covers, this one just bugs me.)
