Holding Up the Universe

From the description, it sounded like All the Bright Places meets Bone Gap -- which sign me the fuck up!
But in practice, I couldn't get past the first 10%. It seemed like Jennifer Niven spent the whole time trying to convince me these characters were interesting, rather than them actually being interesting. It wasn't that the story was bad, it's just that--after reading All the Bright Places--I have such high regard of Jennifer Niven that I didn't want this to ruin it.
Think I'll try Velva Jean Learns to Drive instead.
