I love you, Cassie
Partially blind reader here, and in this book's case, that's something I should mention before I dive in with my rambling reviews.
Why 5 stars?
1 did I pu the book down?
No, impossible. I listened to this in ebook formate with the screen reader telling me the whole thing. I remember as soon as I finished the 1st book I went on to this one. I had lunch while listening, did some other mechanical chores while listening, I didn't stop until I finished the book.
2. The characters.
I already said in my review of book 1 that I love Tara, and now I love Cassie. I wont go into spoilers, but it is known from quite early on that Cassie is blind, and also she's in the foster care system. I'm partially blind and adopted. Should I say more?
3. Structure
This book is where the repetition aspect was effective instead of jarring, unlike some other books.
Tara has a hard dilemma in this story, and with every attempt she makes, it hurts more and more. I want to quote it, but I'll restrain myself and keep spoilers out of this.
4. Writing?
It takes sensitivity to write a character like Cassie Yates. Joey understood her so well it kinda scared me.
5. Subjective stuff
Although Cassie is the more known case of the pitch-black blind portrayed in fiction, her personality was something I needed to see as a teen. I'm thankful to find her as an adult. This book made me cry, and made me thank my adoptive parents for being in my life.
