I’m a mix of emotions when it comes to this story. The concept- brilliant! The execution of the concept into the story, however, gets very confusing quickly. It was hard to tell what was real and what wasn’t. When I first found out that things weren’t what they seemed, I was enchanted. What a clever twist! The problem: There wasn’t a clear explanation to why this was happening, and with so many changes, it was difficult to follow along very well, and I ended up really confused. I had to go back a few times and see what I missed.

The writing is beautiful. The love story between Derek and Annie, I enjoyed. The way they were with each other, the snappy and fun dialogue. When it came to the ending, though, I had more questions than I got answers for and it left me a little puzzled.
