This story tells the story of Memphis, Sky and Josh. Three kids with a tonne of trauma, dropped next door to each other as kids and left to figure it out. We know what happens to Josh, thanks to the "The Words" and all I have to say is, couldn't of happened to a nicer fellow.
Memphis... oh my gosh Memphis. I am not sure if it's just how I read it, but I definitely read him as autistic and I loved the representation. As far as book boyfriends go, it's between him and Reiner Kulti as brooding men I will die on a mountain for.
Sky is a fantastic female character and given Jade gave her a classically tragic backstory (usually I find these a little too on the nose and poorly done) and made her stunning, I was surprised how much I warmed to her. She was a great combination or confident and insecure, fun and serious, vulnerable and strong... just like most women I know!
The story is dark at times and this is much more of a slow burn than I expected but the pay off is worth it. Thoroughly enjoyable read. Will be looking out for The Consequence.
