The summary actually sounds really intriguing but sorry to hear that the first 30% of the book was hard to get into. I would never have thought this book was a love triangle judging by the summary too! <br /><br />Thank you for the awesome and honest review, Rachel! ♥Celinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081398800624180719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-44258405562170580702012-10-06T23:29:06.019+01:002012-10-06T23:29:06.019+01:00I don't even know how that name is supposed to...I don't even know how that name is supposed to be pronounced and that would have interrupted my reading of what sounds like an already difficult book to read. I don't understand why Ever is so hung up on a ghost (he's a ghost!) and the multiple love triangles would have made me mad too!<br /><br />Really well review, Rachel!Vegan YA Nerdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11244310544451371368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-18115302807068476852012-10-06T23:26:10.515+01:002012-10-06T23:26:10.515+01:00I think this book is definitely not for me either!...I think this book is definitely not for me either! Constantly through your review all the flaws I just felt like gagging already! It felt like a rip-off of another book combined with more complications that even had me at a headache already! That's pretty weird plot to begin with. :/ <br /><br />Wonderful review, Rachel! Now I know to avoid this book!

How many more spunky friends can YA really take? Plus, I generally avoid love triangles out of principle, and this one, being even more complicated than your garden variety LT, is something I must avoid.<br />Thanks for the review, Rachel!Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-82138474195948518332012-10-06T20:17:05.441+01:002012-10-06T20:17:05.441+01:00I'm sorry this one didn't work out for you...I'm sorry this one didn't work out for you, Rachel! I was never drawn into this story and I can see I was right in staying away. Insta-love, love triangles, AND a cliffhanger? Yup, this wouldn't have been my cup of tea at all. Plus, judging from your status updates on GoodReads, I doubt I'd have gotten too far into this one unfortunately. Wonderful review though, dear, and I hope the next book you pick up is more promising! :DKeertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-25134526582472727512012-10-06T17:31:48.738+01:002012-10-06T17:31:48.738+01:00I feel bad even mentioning the name, because, what...I feel bad even mentioning the name, because, what if someone reads this that has that name? Lol! It's not that I don't like the name, I just always get hung up on the pronunciation. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682335183798720529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-25548075965981066032012-10-06T17:30:13.360+01:002012-10-06T17:30:13.360+01:00You've read this, Zuleeza?

I'm not fond of insta-love, love triangles and cliffhangers too and I think that a love triangle with a ghost is quite...meh.
