Lack of substance

There was no real emotional depth. This woman nearly died and then hooks up with a rando after a few days and once she tells her fam she’s in love they’re ok with it?

Oh…and how about this convenient masked event happening in Paragon that we find out about 300 some odd pages later.

No thanks. ...more

I will say it was well written meaning the quality of the authors writing is decent and enjoyable easy to read doesn’t read like I’m reading something written by middle schooler there weren’t grammatical errors or anything like that, so that was a definite plus and the story itself was decent and interesting too, but just felt short in a couple of ways and that’s why I rated it 2 1/2 three stars it was maybe 2.75 stars story and I say that because we don’t really truly get a full appreciation of why Harper started acting out the way that she did. It just seems like her best friend‘s mother died, but then the two of them got super super close and became engaged in a romantic relationship after his mother passed and then he went away to school and she couldn’t really handle it and broke up with him and so since we didn’t really get much of her frame of mind after his best friend‘s mom passed away to see how she was coping with it and dealing with it. It felt a little over the top for that to be the reason why she started acting out and couldn’t handle him leaving even though he didn’t leave by Choice so that part of the story could’ve been expanded a bit more and the story also probably could’ve benefited some from Declan‘s point of view not much but just a little bit maybe here and there because without it his behavior kind of seems all over the place and it’s hard to empathize with him when we don’t really know where he’s coming from. He’s obviously hurt. We know that much but he just definitely seems completely inconsistent and then on top of it you know these are two very young teenagers it’s hard to see after they have this big huge confrontation that feels very angry and very toxic and very hurtful. It’s hard to see how they come back from that without seriously going into therapy and that’s really my biggest gripe with the story is that this is all building to this huge confrontation and like seven pages later they talk it all out and the story ends and we don’t know. Does Harper‘s mother live or die we don’t really get a good sense of what the future holds for these characters and it’s OK to leave a story on an ambiguous note but I don’t think that’s what the authors intention was here so and what’s done is done there’s no changing the story it would’ve benefited I think more from these characters hashing this stuff out earlier in the story and then figuring out how to heal from that. I think that would’ve made a much more powerful story to see them healing from what they did to each other leading up to the confrontation as well as what they said to each other during their confrontation and dealing with the aftermath since that confrontation was pretty deep. It’s hard to just dismiss this as like oh well, they’re just teenagers. You know that again I don’t think that’s what the author was going for so kind of sold herself short a little bit and the story could’ve been a solid four stars if it had just been expanded a bit more in certain areas. ...more

review

**spoiler alert** OK, I’m glad you were finally gotten around to reading this book and finishing this geology like so many people I enjoyed the first **spoiler alert** OK, I’m glad you were finally gotten around to reading this book and finishing this geology like so many people I enjoyed the first book quite a bit and I’ve been burned by geologies in the past so I was relieved to see that not much really changed when it comes to point of view I saw another reviewer comment on the multiple points of view toward the end of the book and I do think that was very interesting. You know what it reminded me of is like when you’re watching an action film or really any sort of visual medium and there’s a quick montage showing what all of the characters are doing leading up to this huge climatic event And that’s what we got towards the end of this book. This huge bombing was gonna take place and so the author checked in with not only our main characters, but also supporting cast of characters to see what they were doing now I am utterly disappointed that forest and Sarah were killed off. I mean sure I get it that some people had to die maybe but why did it have to be them couldn’t the author of killed off some of Addie‘s siblings. I mean there’s like 10,000 of them running around Iris lost her mother in the first book. Did we ever even knew who know who her father was? OK? She married Roman only to lose him and be apart from him for a good amount of the second book, and then she was separated from her brother only to be reunited, and then he dies, and Sarah dies too I mean those two characters were so great. I just really felt like it was so cruel to our female main character to kill off her last living relative so I You know agreed to disagree with the author I suppose that that kind of killed some of it for me the other thing is you know we’re dealing with God‘s and just something that I was thinking about as I was reading. The second book is that it’s just so interesting and deviates in my opinion so much from the fantasy books that were used to where the female main character who ends up saving the day or whatever ends up having some you know there ends up being something hidden about her that we didn’t know that makes her the chosen one, but that wasn’t the case here I mean Eva popped into the dreams of multiple people that I miss the part where Eva says why Iris is the one who is going to kill Dacre? and I just thought it was so interesting that something like printing newspapers ended up being like such a powerful thing that played throughout both books and I guess because it’s a medium that has lost its importance and significance today but it just I don’t know struck me for some reason while reading the second book like they’re just newspaper writers and is it just me or did it seem like super easy to defeat him and you know maybe the idea wasn’t so much about actually how they went about defeating him but everything that led up to that moment and not the moment itself like I think him being defeated was inevitable, but you know it’s not a bad thing or a good thing. It’s just different. You know she had the sword and then Addie ended up telling her weight and they sung him to sleep and you know I mean it’s just very it’s so different. It’s so different and I think that’s why it was like striking to me in that regard. another thing that I find really really interesting and refreshing is that the male main character is very weak and I don’t mean like weak minded or not having a backbone or anything like that. Roman is a very strong willed individual but he is physically weakened he is constantly out of physical disadvantage not because he is you know 3 feet tall or anything like that but he’s held prisoner his mind so yeah, he’s also mentally weekend because he’s held prisoner. His memories are stolen. I mean it’s very very interesting to me and oh my gosh that scene when Iris sneaks into his room and we get Romans in our thoughts and how he is self-conscious about his physical state how much weight he’s lost and everything I mean, I don’t know just such a fucking beautiful scene and Iris just loves him regardless I mean, I could go back and reread that scene right now it was just so tender and loving and touching and beautiful and authentic so as I’m reading this book, I’m trying to figure out what’s going to happen. I mean I almost had to break down and re-spoil spoiler alerts because I couldn’t take it. I stay strong and kept reading when I kept expecting that Roman would be used against Iris as it means of manipulation and then it seemed like it wasn’t gonna play out that way, but then I knew it was too good to be true that they never got caught in his duplicitous and never got caught I love the magic of the typewriters. I love Iris‘s friendships and I don’t know if it was because I was so dead tired and I was desperate to finish this book because I was so close to the end. Maybe that’s why the ending seems so anticlimactic to me and I’m trying to remember exactly how it ended so Iris kills Dara and then she is working on cleaning up the city. Meanwhile, Roman gets sent to the hospital and then we find out that he’s gonna be dealing with the scar tissue in his lungs and have this heart condition. I mean the man he’s only 19 years old and here I’m thinking how are he and Iris ever gonna have sex again if he can’t, you know get his heart rate up or anything like that you know I think our author was just a little bit too harsh on the after effects for our poor main couple. OK, I just skimmed over the last couple of chapters of the book to refresh my memory and yes, I was bone tired when I read it, but it was also very subdued which given what the characters had been through I think it is deserving and fitting, they de deserve a quiet, peaceful life, and it is very charming to think of Roman and Iris together to writers. It is a very romantic idea her in the garden and it’s very sweet to see that you know something she had no experience with and learned from her friends, Marisol and Keegan and now it’s something that she’s doing so it was very sweet and especially the last couple of letters that were exchanged between them that we were able to read so overall very satisfied with this geology that I like the first book slightly more than the second yes, but the second book was certainly just as entertaining, and I was just as interested in the characters ...more
