But when her parents announce they're splitting up, her entire world begins to fall apart.

"I didn’t feel much of a plot to it all…"

"Oh. My. God. I wish it was a happy ending. My heart is aching. I started bawling my eyes out while i was finishing this book. And then i bawled my eyes out more after I finished this book. I love it and hate it at the same time because my heart hurts. Such an amazing book though. She’s such a great writer."

"If we are doing star ratings based on what goodreads said, this is a solid 2. Maybe 2.5 stars. This was really just alright. There wasn't anything about this or the characters that make them stand out. Hannah was a bit more on the manic side than I usually like my characters. She's still stuck in that teenage hormonal stage when she dates. Like say, imagining the wedding on the first date. Yikes. Even worse, putting money down on a dress after three days. Yiiikes. She does fine, even after reminiscing on past crazy bits. It makes it sound like she's outgrown the crazy stage, but embarrassingly, she lapses.<br/><br/>What I wanted was more skimped over. The yoga part. The rehab part. Because honestly, even not being a true yoga person, yoga is some of the best things you can do so I was looking forward to more growth and a better get to know you stage than this book offered. Somehow, even with the title of the series being Yoga in the City, yoga takes a bit of a backseat. It's a bit disappointing.<br/><br/><b>There is a bonus epilogue that I did not read, because you have to sign up for the author's newsletter.</b> I really hate gimmicks like this. Make me subscribe and unsubscribe in five minutes to read a bit more. Not worth the hassle."
