Aku menikmati 1/3 buku ini. Ruby sudah lumayan berubah, lebih... powerfull lah. Dan semua itu berubah ketika nama Liam disebutkan.Serius, payah banget adegan romantis dibuku ini. Dan Ruby juga makin payah dan galau. Apa-apaan dia galau karena hal kecil diluar logika manusia? Syukurlah ada Vida. I'm into ya. Dia membuatku tetap waras membaca buku ini, padahal banyak banget halaman yang aku skip, terutama bagian akhir. No time for bullshit.Dan aku lupa menambahkan, Clancy agak mengingatkanku akan Warner (Shatter Me, Tahereh Mafi).Dan oh pelis, Amerika masa depan haruskah masih ada keripik kentang, pop tarts dsb? Hello, kamu dalam masa krisis makanannya tetap kiripik dan soda? Amerika banget.Nevermind. Ada satu quote yang cetar banget *hugsVida*: Orang sepertimu adalah penyebab jari tengah diciptakan. I felt that this installment had a very confusing start and the character development not there. Also, I found myself constantly having the refer back to the end of the first book (which wasn't helpful) to try to figure out what was going on. As the plot progressed the confusion became less and less as the characters developed and background information was revealed. It took over half the book for all the pieces to fit together nicely enough to move past development and into the story. Once that happened though, it became a page-turning thrill-ride. I enjoyed Never Fade and the sass that Bracken brings to her characters making them very realistic. I will say, however, this book gets a 3/5 purely for the pronoun-antecedent confusing that plagued me as a reader from beginning to end.
What do You think about Never Fade (2013)?
