review 1: This book had such and interesting premise. There were so many emotions and dichotomies and subtleties of relationships here to play with and explore. I really really wanted to like this story more than I did. The writing was good. The main characters were engaging. The plot was mysterious and dark and brilliant. It just felt underdeveloped, the side characters flat, and so much of the relationships between the main characters left sort of glancing and surface. I would really love to see this author take this story deeper, more detailed, more complex. Honestly, this story deserves it and I think the author could do it.

... morehis is Wisdom; to love, to live, To take what Fate, or the Gods, may give, To ask no question, to make no prayer, To kiss the lips and caress the hairI assume that Through To You is more than a typical Twilight Series, that I have read several times, but this novel… just hits the bomb shell. As a matter of fact, Through To You is the type of book that shows me the will to love again, even though you’re facing difficulties in life regarding somethings. Out of all the books in YA shelf, I have found myself Through To You as one of my favorites. Overall the novel is interesting. It just…creates a suspenseful vibe to it, like you can’t wait to read more and figure out what happens next as it leaves me hanging. There’s a lot of pressure building upon the protagonist as he faces through many challenging moments in life. The story is basically about a 18-year old high school guy named Camden Pike who is in despair, along with being grief-stricken ever since his girlfriend Viv had passed away in a car accident and his life changes dramatically when he meets Nina in the green light… OMG the ghost girl that wasn’t actually considered A GHOST, but an ordinary person living a normal life. There is another world out there that’s unexpected that Camden discovers and as time eventually moves closer, things become twisted in this other universe, as the pathway between each other gradually gets smaller. And it is through a little secret kept away from him is forced to make a difficult choice that will change his life forever. “Viv, you are missed. Why do bad things happen to good people? Miss you, Viv Can’t believe you’re gone.” The story is written in the perspective of Camden, who is sort of like the narrator in this case. Camden is a loner without Viv beside him and even though, he lives with the lawyer of the household, his mom while his dad is in another house. His parents divorced leaving the relationship between his father to fade. “Various excuses scroll through my mind: The phone fell off the wall. Don’t worry; I smashed it because of Dad, not you. Actually, if you were ever around, maybe he wouldn’t have left in the first place.” Camden and Nina both become friends over the course of time and as he meets Viv in the other world, he notices that they don’t share a strong relationship with each other at Fowler High. There is love, isolation, family, and loss that the protagonist encounters throughout the book. I feel like the themes of this book just… HITS THE SPOT! It just suits everything together using the different types of themes.This novel… its amazingly, impeccably written. The writing is clear to understand, its not confusing or any sort. HOWEVER, it doesn’t show the feelings of other characters mentioned in the book. There are dialogues in the book that are engaging-it hooks the reader in, making me want to constantly go on… less

I have no idea what happened or how. Green glows, double lives, double huhs? from me.

Shows how everything is not what it seems and that people can be multifaceted.

Interesting premise -- two parallel universes separated by choices.
Aniqa
To put it succinctly: interesting idea, but too much skin.

Interesting premise, ho-hum execution.
