We have the days repeating over and over again like in Before I Fall. It would be fine if this book offered something new or interesting, but it doesn’t. This book is a haphazard conglomeration of a lot of trends, but it especially reminded me of a few very popular YA books: And Neverworld Wake? I’ve read it several times. Let me tell you something: I’m really sick of reading books that I’ve already read. Now Beatrice has one last shot at answers… and at life. Blithely, he announces the impossible: time for them has become stuck, snagged on a splinter that can only be removed if the former friends make the harshest of decisions. Then a mysterious man knocks on the door. One year after graduation, Beatrice is returning to Wincroft – the seaside estate where they spent so many nights sharing secrets, crushes, plans to change the world – hoping she’ll get to the bottom of the dark questions gnawing at her about Jim’s death.īut as the night plays out in a haze of stilted jokes and unfathomable silence, Beatrice senses she’s never going to know what really happened. Then the shocking death of Jim – their creative genius and Beatrice’s boyfriend – changed everything. Once upon a time, back at Darrow-Harker School, Beatrice Hartley and her five best friends were the cool kids, the beautiful ones.
