Review of 'You were here' on 'Goodreads'

Whenever I receive a galley in exchange for my honest review I really do try to read the entire book and evaluate the whole work, but I just found this one to be a non-starter. I made 6 or 7 attempts to read the book but I found the characters so off-putting with improbable motivations and no significant development that I kept setting it aside after 10 or 20 minutes.

Cori McCarthy can write decent prose but really needs some guidance in character development. In my opinion this book needs significant work with a content editor in order to bring it to life.
