Fracturing Fate by Sasha Alsberg
2.0
I enjoyed the storyline behind this one a lot more than I did Breaking Time. The Fae are always characters that I can get behind, and I really enjoyed how this book incorporated that into the time travel that we've already been experiencing.
I will say that while I enjoyed the story a lot more than the previous, the characters still bothered me a lot. There's no chemistry between our two main characters. Considering these two are supposed to be madly in love, I get no sparks from them and actually find their relationship pretty bland and boring. Thrown together because that's what you're supposed to do in a YA novel. I thought there was more to Klara and Tom's relationship than there was with Callum. Considering how his storyline panned out. That's saying something.
The way that Klara is written feels extremely immature to me, especially because she's this super special girl who's pretty much been chosen to save the world. Some of the things she says made me cringe. Hard. Not even getting started on how unrealistic Callums entire character was.
I enjoyed this more than the first. But I still didn't really find it enjoyable.
