If you like buying two books to finish one story, then you will love this.
I'm half-joking, but only because these type of books have me hooked.
Pff, verdient eigenlijk die ene ster nog niet... Enige positieve aan het boek was dat het mij nieuwsgierig maakte naar de ontknoping. Daarom ook aan boek 2 begonnen, maar heb nu net de ontknoping gelezen in een review bij het nakijken hoeveel boeken ik zou moeten doorworstelen om een antwoord te krijgen (6! bloody hell!).
Nieuwsgierigheid gestild, verder lezen hoeft voor mij niet meer. Zegt genoeg, vind ik.
I read this after i watched the first episode. They are not similar at all. But the book is still really good, but the show has more betrayal.
I'm always skeptical when I pick up a YA book. Especially one that has been turned into a tv show or movie. Will it be filled with cliched dialogue and characters? A little, but this is aimed at teens so it's to be expected. Will the adults be dumb and clueless? Of course. However, I've read more clueless adults than this. Will I want to strangle each and every character before page 100? Surprisingly no. And lumped altogether, it actually made for a quick, light, enjoyable read. Better yet, it was different enough from the tv show (yes I watch) that I didn't feel like I was reading a smashed up conglomeration of 3 or 4 episodes of the ABC Family series (though I do like some of the changes they made for the show).
The one thing that bugged me was the constant switching between 1st person narrative (Sutton) and 3rd person (Emma). I imagine the reason behind this was so the author could keep the characters separate, but it made for some issues with story flow.
