review 1: I really wanted to like this story. I read plenty of YA, and I understand that the majority of teenagers in this country are self-absorbed and neurotic. But these characters are ALL messed up, every single one. You start to wonder if any of them are worth caring about. [return][return]My main complaint with the story is that our poor, broken hero really ought to have come up with safer ways of going unconscious than getting the crap beaten out of himself on a regular basis. I suppose that an addict will do whatever it takes to get their high, no matter how stupid. But really, jumping head first off a two story building and miraculously not breaking his neck? Please.[return][return]Vaux and Paige could really have been interesting characters had they been given a litt... morele attention. As it is, they are just vehicles for Ade's self absorption. Even the 'villain' of the story is barely described as more than a stereotype.[return][return]I spent a good deal of the story wondering what purpose all those letters at each chapter intro served, since he obviously didn't give a damn what anybody else thought he should do. I had trouble even believing that he could muster the initiative or brainpower to track down and write all those people in the first place.[return][return]It's a shame that with such an interesting premise, that the main character was so inept. I kept wanting to reach into the story and haul the doofus off to a padded room. That and slap his mom silly.
review 2: I won this as a first reads on goodreads. I found it an ok read kinda strange and weird at times. Ade sees the future when he knocks his self unconscious. He falls in love with a girl he seen in the future. She has even bigger issues than him. His mother takes the crazy award. She is fine with him jumping off buildings crashing cars, whatever it takes to see the future. Why because she thinks they are visions from God. This book has lots of turns and twists but is weird most of the time. If you have time to sit and stay tuned to every word you will enjoy this book. If you want a quick read that doesn't get confusing at times this isn't for you. less
