Did I love this? Yes! Do I wish this book just had about 20 more pages to really fill in all the blanks? Yes.
Overall I loved this book but the ending was a slight let down because I just wanted more. It would have been nice to have gotten just a bit more of what happened after everything finished up. It felt like my questions weren’t totally answered.

It was just FANTASTIC! AMAZING! AWESOME! BREATHTAKING! OVERWHELMING! And ALL the awesome words that exist in all the worlds!
A simply loved it so much that it was hard for me to find out that there isn't going to be a third book:( But anyway the ending of this book was awesome and for me, unexpected and that is maybe why I loved it so much:)
Thank you Kasie West for writing this book and adding this incredible story to my life!

I enjoyed this one just as much as the first. The POV switching each chapter was a bit tricky, but that didn’t bother me since it didn’t take long to get use to. This series with be added to my home library and I definitely read again!

A worthy sequel that was so fun, I didn't think of any plot holes until way after I had a pit of stomach fear and teared up a bit at the end (THIS IS BIG FOR ME, PEOPLE).

A solid sequel. This book switches between two points of view, which at first felt a bit disconcerting to me. By the end, however, I was used to it and actually enjoyed the format and seeing things from different perspectives. I think it was a good choice to add Laila's point of view in, as it may have been hard for Addie to carry this book on her own.

I read this book in a day! I just needed to know what happens with Addie, her best friend (Laila), everything, and everyone in her life. I do love that it picks up exactly where the first one ends. This book switches between Addie and Laila this time which is a nice change. So many pieces from the first book get referenced in and it makes it so much better to see it all play out. The way Kasie West writes is amazing. She makes you get so invested in all the characters and plays out everything so flawless in the end.

I LOVED IT.
Not as much as the first one, probably because EVEN THOUGH I liked that it had Laila's point of view...idk i think it would have been better if hers was a separate short story sorta thing.

“Split Second” picks up shortly after Addie Coleman’s showdown with Bobby. She decide to live in the reality where she stayed in the Compound with her mother. That being said, it means all the events that happened in her other reality never happened. Her life with her father in the Norm world never existed.

Needing an escape from reality, she leaves the Compound to the Norm world with her father as she visits him for 6 weeks. While in the Norm world, she stumbles upon Trevor, someone who played a huge part in her other reality. She begins to to have these moments of familiarity with everyone she meets, but especially Trevor.

Back in the Compound we learn how Addie’s best friend Laila life really is. We had a taste of it in “Pivot Point,” but we really see how rough her life really is. As Laila searches for ways to advance her ability to help Addie, she discovers some dark secrets within the walls of the Compound along with finding her own love interest.

Meanwhile in the Norm world, Addie’s ability is acting up. Unable to control her newly developing ability, she uses it and it does not go unnoticed. Trevor begins having suspicions of not only Addie, but everyone who attends Liberty High. Not only is Trevor suspicious of Addie, but the Compound is too. There are Compound agents in the Norm world monitoring Addie and her friends and things get INTENSE!

Now, the ending is not what I expected or wanted really. I truly felt as though the ending was rushed and left unfinished. I want MORE. I want to know if the Compound is truly corrupt. I want to know how Addie makes it in the Norm world and if she and Trevor stay together. I want to know how Trevor handles knowing the truth and how her father reacts to him knowing. I want to know how it would work if they got married, had kids even. I need answers!
