Goodread's bio: On
the night of Skye’s seventeenth birthday, she meets two enigmatic
strangers. Complete opposites—like fire and ice—Asher is dark and wild,
while Devin is fair and aloof. Their sudden appearance sends Skye’s life
into a tailspin. She has no idea what they want, or why they seem to
follow her every move—only that their presence coincides with a flurry
of strange events. Soon she begins to doubt not just the identity of the
two boys, but also the truth about her own past.
In the dead of a
bitingly cold Colorado winter, Skye finds herself coming to terms with
the impossible secret that threatens to shatter her world. Torn between
Asher, who she can’t help falling for, and Devin, who she can’t stay
away from, the consequences of Skye’s choice will reach further than the
three of them could ever imagine.
My Review: eh. i technically have 8 pages left but i feel like nothing big is gonna happen so i'm going to go ahead and write this!
i have no idea how i feel about this book. i read it in 4 days, so
100 pages/day, so i guess i liked it because i read it quickly. But i
feel like nothing major even happened!!!
Most of the book, is Skye trying to choose between good and bad,
light or dark powers. She is also trying to choose between two boys.
Most of the time, i forgot which boy was talking, they were written the
same pretty much. She falls for both, of course right.
Also some strange things happen and she tries to develop her "powers"
but that only takes up maybe 50 pages of the book, so i'm disappointed,
but i read some reviews on goodreads and everyone claims it gets better
in the second book, which i have at home so i figure i'll have a crack
at it, either way i'll be gaining another read for the year so might as
well :]
Recommend it?: eh, i haven't decided yet. Sorry.
9 books to go til i reach my goal :]
Anyone read this yet?? Or the second one??
