Even though I do like her snark, I don’t understand how she can be so bitchy for an amnesiac yet so ‘Oh God, why is that person so mean?’ when she’s the same as well. I don’t get how Charlie can go “I’m hungry” in a situation so serious (p.27). Okay, fine, maybe it’s because of the amnesia here but I don’t understand how they can still think of the usual stuff hormonal teenager stuff while having to deal with something so huge. Other than that, I can’t say I’m in any way attached to Charlie and Silas (and I the only snickering at this name choice because I had to read Silas Marner for class? Not that it’s a bad name or that either one of them are bad characters) because they don’t really feel human.
Also, spending thrice the usual money on what is supposed to be one novel that ended up being a so-called series is a turnoff.) (On the note that this story is split into three parts, I have to say that it might’ve been a dumb marketing move because since it is split into three parts, I’m more inclined to not get the other two in fear that my fears would be met.
Really, I don’t like this feeling, and I can’t confirm it until I convince myself enough to buy parts two and three of this not-series.
It’s lurking in the corners of my mind, whispering that this book will have some kind of overused mystery/thriller trope and that I’ll probably be pissed if it were right. However, here’s the downer: Amidst the confusion, I still feel like this is some clichéd story. Is this the brilliance of their writing? Or is this the brilliance of leaving out a lot of important details (or more like, putting in a lot of unexplained information) and only including miniscule bits because there’s two more parts to this story? I’ve no idea but it provides a good ‘atmosphere’ for this rather promising part one. I’ve not read anything else by Tarryn Fisher yet but in the case of this book, both authors have managed me sink me in the whirlpool of confusion main characters Charlie and Silas are going through from the very first page itself. As of now, she still remains as my go-to author for contemporary YA/NA romances because no matter how cliché I feel the basic plotline for contemporary YA/NA romances are, she still manages to hook me in through the whirl of emotions her characters feel (the first book I’ve read by her is Ugly Love and yes, I bawled my eyes out like a newborn). It’s so confusing that I don’t even know how I actually feel about it but I’m going to try to straighten things out a little for the sake of this review.įirstly, Colleen Hoover is as brilliant as always. Never Never by Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher is an incredibly confusing book. Genre(s): Young Adult, Contemporary, Mystery Never Never by Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher
