This is a perfect representation of me after finishing
this…
Because I don't.
Was it terrible? No.
Was it great? No.
To be honest, I don't really have a whole lot of feelings
towards any of it. I never connected with the characters, maybe because they
don't know who they are? I don’t know, but I literally felt nothing for them.
I'm not rooting for them as a couple, again, maybe because of their situation.
Could we not get a flashback or something to them as a couple? Sure, there are
bread crumbs, but nothing substantial enough to make me think "I really want these two to be
together." I'm just indifferent. I don't care. They could have a
happily ever after or never see each other again, and I'd be good either way.
Sure, the mystery element is kind of intriguing but I
just read about 140 pages of a story and I am no closer to finding out what
happened to Charlie and Silas. I kind of wish I would have delved a little
deeper into some reviews before I bought this; if I had known that I would
still have zero answers at the end of this installment, I probably would have
skipped it and just started with the second serial.
I'm a huge Tarryn Fisher fan, but it kind of saddens me
to say this…I may be falling off the Colleen Hoover fangirl train. I haven't
enjoyed the past two novels she has released, and I haven't even liked any of
her characters since Sky and Holder in Hopeless.
Maybe my tastes are evolving, and Colleen's writing and/or characters just
aren't my cup of tea anymore. However, considering this was a collaboration, I
was expecting something great. Unfortunately, I just found it kind of average.
It kept me entertained enough to finish, but I’m not chomping at the bit to
find out what happens next.
Oh well. You can’t like ‘em all.

I've enjoyed a few of Hoover's books, but Never Never? Nope. I felt like I was reading in the middle of a book, not a novella? It was rough!
ReplyDeleteGreat review!
I might be tumbling off the Colleen Hoover fangirl train. I haven't appreciated the previous two books she has delivered The Resurrection of Gavin Jacket
