review 1: This book started off so amazing! I had so many hopes, it sounded so good and then I started it. And it was amazing! I loved Beth, she was so funny and interesting and smart! I felt so bad for Beth because her supposed best friend was absolutely awful to her almost all the time! Her mom was crazy but really seemed like she loved her and cared about her! Then the floaters started and Beth met Richie and I was even more invested. Then we were getting glimpses into these other people's lives every other chapter and I was even more intrigued because clearly these people had things in common with each and with Beth. Then Beth gets Lasik and the world literally falls apart. She starts feel-seeing and at this point I'm even more intrigued because this is really unique. Beth's mom... more ends up checking her into a mental institution and of course I was horrified because Beth isn't crazy. I could go step by step and tell you all the things I loved about this book. I loved Nessa and I loved Richie, thank god for him I don't know what Beth would've done without him! But let me tell you why this book gets 2 stars instead of the 4 stars. It deserved 4 stars up until the last 50 pages. This is a standalone novel, it is absolutely not acceptable to introduce new crazy information in the last 50 pages that leave you with questions that will never be answered and that's exactly what happened. I'm sorry, what was that? Oh wait these other girls are Beth's sisters, and of course they look nothing alike because their Dad's are all different men but it's okay because there's some mystical reason that we still don't know the answer too that explains it. They put Beth through a series of tests and some were self explanatory but some like the tattoo weren't. So what's up with tattoo, what's up with what Mary(evil villain in my mind) told Richie if things were going to be that bad why would he stick around? What about the other girls, what about the big secret, why was their mom in a coma, why do we not know why, what's the mystical reason? None of these things were answered and I am so so so disappointed because I was invested in this book. It sucked me in and then spit me out without any answers or resolution. I'm sorry but it deserves the 2 star rating and I will not recommend it.
review 2: This book, to a person not open to a new readin experience, could be interpreted as confusin and not connected...at all, but to me, this book made perfect sense. Now, im not sayin my readin skills are any higher than anyone else on this page, im 16 and i know my brain isnt done developin and im also not as smart as some of the Adults who have read and reviewed, but since my brain isnt as fully developed, it is open to many ways of doin things, which is what this book needs. To read this book you cant just READ the book, you have to probe deeper and be able to jump from story to story and remember things and be able to connect them at the right moments. This book will give you a peice of information in the beginning that wont click or make sense till the end and thats where you need to make the ropes like Beth does. Also in the "probin deeper" parts, for example: the relationship between Beth and Richie, Beth has been crushin on Richie for a while, and it was obvious that he was flirtin with her, and their "instant love" thing isnt completley out there, by that i mean when they kiss and they get "electrocuted" it isnt just a random zap, if you probe deeper you might find that this could represent the "spark" two people will feel towards eachother that CONNECTS to love at first sight. and the mom part, that could be interpreted as when the mom realizes that the child SHE raised because 7RI gave her up is now goin BACK to those people and her "mother" feels betrayed because those people didnt help her get older, see her through her pains, her sorrows, or see grow up and help at all. So again, once you PROBE deeper and CONNECT to the back story at the end, you get a deeper connected meaning to the story. Im not sayin the other reviews are wrong im just sayin those people must have just read the book by goin through the motions and not "stoppin to smell the roses." I stopped, so to speak, and found this book very interesting and intriguing, you just have to be patient and open to new experiences. less
