I can’t feel sadness anger or fear I can’t feel anything I've grown talented at pretendingElizabeth Caldwell doesn't feel emotions she sees them in human form Longing hovers around the shy adoring boy at school Courage materializes beside her dying friend Fury and Resentment visit her abusive home They've all give This review is also available over at my blogEverything about this book called to me From its eerily gorgeous cover to its intriguing and original premise I was hooked and I dove right in as soon as I got my hands on a galley of itFinal thoughts? Well this book could have been fantastic And don't get me wrong it was At least during the beginning parts I was grinning from ear to ear most of the time because seeing the world Kelsey Sutton built was so fascinating The whole concept of this book is just so damn cool Not only are there personified emotions but also elements like Light Rain Fog etc So many were showcased in this book and I was really glad about that because ultimately that was what I was the most excited to see and the author gave it to meWhat bogged the book down a little in my opinion was how it dragged The pace was extremely slow I got the feeling that the author was going for of the character based emotional route rather than focusing on the fantasy element but it was kinda hard for me to get into that because our main character is incapable of feeling Literally She gives a whole new meaning to the term wooden plank protagonist But because she couldn't feel that also kind of made me disconnected from the side characters as well There are some pretty serious issues that are in this book like the main character's abusive father and her only friend who is dying of cancer but due to Elizabeth's inability to emote I just didn't really care all that much That probably made me sound like a horrible person but it's true I really just wanted to get to discovering about the fantasy element of the story and I was aching to find out what exactly made Elizabeth the way she is But the story just kept dragging and building up for hundreds of pages and I was seriously hoping the payoff would be satisfyingWhen the big revelation came I was a bit underwhelmed I guess I was just expecting something else because I saw that twist coming a mile away and I can't help but feel as if it's done before in YA I'm not sure if that's true or not but it definitely felt familiar There's another reveal not long afterwards that I was kind of impressed with but when the end came I was still pretty underwhelmed The ending did leave the small possibility of a seuel but I think it'd work just fine as a standaloneAs for the romance I don't really have much to say about it There was a little bit of the whole connected and meant to be thing that I almost always loathe in YA but it wasn't that bad in this one And there's also a love triangle sort of but it's blatantly obvious who the main love interest is who the main character is going to end up with in the end Oh and some of you might be thinking How the hell could there be a romance if the main character can't even feel? Well I'll let you find that out for yourselfSo all in all this book really could have been an absolute masterpiece if only it were executed a little better But I still applaud the author for coming up with the incredibly original conceptMany thank you's to NetGalley and Flux for sending me this galley
