Shelves: 4-stars

It's been a week since I finished this and I still don't know how I feel. It was beautiful and tragic. I LOVED Holder!! He was so amazing. Sky was awesome!

Some of the book was difficult to read. It is not a story you read to get the warm and fuzzies. It's emotional, tragic, sad and beautiful all rolled into one. ...more

Wow... that't really all I can say. I have to say that my initial instinct was that one of the things happened to Sky then I thought it was the other. Nothing could have prepared me for everything that would happen to both she and Holder. I found myself gasping and covering my mouth with several things were revealed.

And wouldn't life be wonderful if we could all have a Holder in our lives? True honesty to any question and response? I can't even imagine it. I loved SLAMMED and POINT OF RETREAT an Wow... that't really all I can say. I have to say that my initial instinct was that one of the things happened to Sky then I thought it was the other.

And wouldn't life be wonderful if we could all have a Holder in our lives? True honesty to any question and response? I can't even imagine it. I loved SLAMMED and POINT OF RETREAT and was hesitant in reading this one. Only because I've read second offerings from other authors whom I've loved the first book(s) only to be disappointed by the second. This wasn't the case at all.

I laughed in a lot of places and was really heartbroken in others. I couldn't read it fast enough to know how it all was going to end. I kept trying to find spoilers and have to say that all the reviewers and bloggers were good about not giving anything away, which I'm trying to do the same here. I have a habit of talking about the characters like they are real people and questioning what they do. I don't want to do that here, because I want to encourage anyone who's thinking of reading this book to do so for themselves and to experience what the story has to offer.

I love how good Colleen is at making each character whole. I don't wonder who they are or why they are part of the story no matter how minor they are. She seems to weave them in to make the time we are with them worth their time in the story. I've read so many books where minor characters are mentioned, but I have no idea why the were discussed, shown or what they mean to the story. Even Six was clearly part of this story from beginning to end. You get her place in Sky's life and what she meant to it even though she was out of the country for most of the book and her interactions took place mostly in texts or conversations about her with other people. That's true talent of an author who makes the smallest character mean something to the entire story.

Again, Wow! ...more

I literally just finished Hopeless 5 minutes ago, and I ran to my computer to write this review while I'm still on my super sonic giddy high that this book left me in.
WOW!
Like always this book has been popping up all over my facebook wall to read! I purchased it last night and read till 3 am, only to wake back up this morning to finish it off.
From the first page I totally got wrapped up in the story and characters. I love when you feel like apart of the book because the Author makes the characte ...more
