Review: - Falling Forever (Forever #2)
"Whether it's falling waters, stars, snow...
the sun falling from the evening sky,
or the moon falling into invisible...
I'll be there, right beside you."
This is the type of book I would normally read, though I had a hard time determining what my rating is going to be.
Characters
I wouldn’t say that the characters were great.
Half the time I was pissed at Ashe for being such a jerk, the rest I’m pissed at Emerson for letting Ashe be a jerk. I know in the end Ashe confessed that nothing happened between him and all those girls, but I read a lot of epic love and hate stories where the guy doesn’t get to be as flirty as Ashe. One moment he said he remembers Emerson in everything, and then his mouth will be all over other girls, only to realize that the girl is, and won’t be, Emerson. Like really? Does he need to stick his tongue out in other girls to realize that?
Emmy has some issues. She’ll want nothing to do with Ashe, but then she’ll let him do his ways over her. I think the reason why I didn’t like the characters much is because there are inconsistencies with their actions, too much than what I was expecting.
Plot
I love the office romance theme. This is why I keep on reading the book – I’d love to find out what happens next.
Pace
The first chapters were confusing. There were just so many words that I find it unrealistic that they’ll be in a conversation; plus, the narrative was confusing too.
Ending
I like the ending. There’s the unexpected twist, with the baby girl and Ashe fainting, so the ending is a 5 for me.
Overall, it was a good read. I just had issues with the characters and the pace for a bit, but it’s one of those books that you couldn’t put down once you started reading it.
4 stars.
