Love Me Never by Sara Wolf
3.0
I'm not sure how I feel about Love Me Never. I mean, I liked it and I want to know what happens next but at the same time, I'm not completely sure how I feel about it.
I thought Isis and Jack were really interesting. They both have a past that they're still dealing with, and while I was glad to actually what really happened, I also didn't love it. I did feel for Jack, and everything that happened with Sophia.
You knew something had happened with her years earlier but for the entire book, I just wanted to know what happened. It was the same with Isis and the boy she fell in love it. I did feel a little let down with happened with him. I was expecting something a lot worse than him dumping her and not wanting to be seen in public with her because of her weight.
It definitely had an effect on her, and I get that Jack may have reminded her of him. But I really did expect something different.
As for Jack and Sophia, what happened to her was really sad and horrifying. I can't remember the name of the girl who was behind it but it's hard to believe that she was in middle school and engineered something so horrible. And with what we see her do a few years later to someone else...she really is vindictive and horrible. I actually kind of want to know her life story just to see how she became the person she did. He did fall into something I wouldn't have expected just to help out Sophia and get her the medical treatment she needed.
Isis and Jack have a lot of back and forth, and for as much as they seem to dislike each other, they also seem to be really drawn together. He does seem protective of her, at least to a certain extent. I'm actually wondering if there's something about Isis that makes him thinks of Sophia. He certainly can't get her out of his head.
It's weird, because there are a lot of things I liked on their own but all together? Not so much. I'm not sure if that makes sense to anyone except me but as a whole, something just seemed off. Maybe I just wasn't super into the book. Don't get me wrong, I liked Love Me Never, and I liked all of the pieces but...maybe it's just not for me. I do want to know what happens next, especially with how the book ended. It makes me wonder what's in store for Isis, Jack and Sophia.
My Rating: 3 stars. I liked Love Me Never and I do want to know what happens next but I didn't love it.
