I agree with you as far as the cover is concerned, infact, I like the cover.This kind of power of "looking into the future" is different, and intriguing.

I also agree with most of your expectations - the lack of care for when this novel first popped up but later wondering why I judged the book so harshly when it was a great one indeed.<br /><br />Not explaining is a pet peeve of mine too, but I do admit that despite how much I liked this one, I did wish there was more explanation to their powers.<br /><br />Her writing IS addictive. It's compulsively readable and easy to get through too. "For me at least I loved how multiple moments in each possible life connected each other but from different vantage points. For example were Addie meets someone who is in fact very important in the novel and in each possible life, she learns his secret and further in the story she discovers the same secret in a different way altogether in another possible life." <-- YES YES YES. And much appreciation for how she differentiated each chapter with the little definitions. And to the way the love triangle is handled. And Addie's little details. And her friendship with Laila. So much good stuff to love about this novel!<br /><br />I'm glad you loved the book too and I hope we can both enjoy the sequel :).Christina Reads YAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937783114868207494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7247022480439975176.post-9743869267586679102013-09-09T13:13:46.552-04:002013-09-09T13:13:46.552-04:00The characters def were enjoyable and she is a gre...The characters def were enjoyable and she is a great story tellerbrandileigh2003https://www.blogger.com/profile/01669251993917961293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7247022480439975176.post-71439186941945658212013-09-09T02:40:56.657-04:002013-09-09T02:40:56.657-04:00Honestly I haven't read this one just because ...Honestly I haven't read this one just because of that love triangle.

I think she even said it's sarcastic and witty. I'll definitely have to read this!
