Bliss by Danyel Smith
Bliss by Danyel Smith is a head scratcher. I tried with all my might to finish to the last page, even the last chapter, but only made it as far as Chapter 10.

The characters, aside from Eva, were not powerful. Not one stood out to me, and I had to constantly go back and try to re-read about the supporting characters in order for me to understand what was happening. And I still couldn’t quite grasp the story. The more I read, the more confused I would become.
