Review: 2 stars
General: This is the first in a series and the overall idea for the book drew me in from the start. The characters had such amazing back stories there was so much potential.I thought the suspense element was nicely done as well as there being some truly original conversations throughout. This was a great example of an NA book versus a YA. The themes and concepts in this book were deep and dark, things traditionally not meant to be read by preteens and even 16 year olds depending on their personality. I liked being shown the backstory and not told it. However there were so many flips that it was actually too much as I was lost to the present accounts and sometimes had a little bit of trouble connecting what time frame I was in because the shifts were a bit abrupt.
The biggest flaw in the book was grammatical errors. I know there have been a few versions of this book and am uncertain if the corrections have been made. However I feel you should be putting the best possible copy out right away or taking a step back and fixing it first. Also, the characters were different based on POV. I loved that we had shifts in POV I find it essential to truly like a character. Personal perception is key of course, but the personal and external were so far apart I had to wonder why.
Characters: I am going to skip the character review for the simple reason that I am not certain which description of the characters was the real one. Both were very very well done, but due to such drastic shifts I don’t want to label them and give people improper perceptions.… (mehr)
