![]() ![]() In addition, the supposedly forbidden romance (or maybe even lost romance) in the centre of the story wasn’t deep enough and instead of letting us get to know more about the love between Joan and Nick we get constant repetition of how they felt when they first met so that when the final betrayal comes it hardly evokes any emotions or sympathy towards them. The timelines also weren’t explored enough, while the notion that the timeline strived to correct itself so that monsters couldn’t change the events that were supposed to happen was understandable enough the fact that some monsters could play with its’ rules and also the question about what happened to the original timeline were left as mysteries probably to be solved in the next book in the series. ![]() Joan’s power’s weren’t explained properly and I felt like more than anything they were a magical fix instead of a completely thought out abilities with rules and limitations. Even though as a whole this book was enjoyable and I liked it some elements were severely lacking. ![]() The lines between good and bad weren’t obvious and I was debating myself the entire time while reading it. This book is a nice new entry to the YA fantasy realm and I found the idea of us as readers being supposedly on the side of the bad ones (the monsters) quite original and interesting. ![]()
