czai 's review for:

This Is Where the World Ends by Amy Zhang

4.0

---

i didn't expect myself to actually love this. and i guess that's the reason why i also ended up giving this four stars and loving it--the low expectation.

i like the mystery and its slow unraveling, the back-and-forth of Janie's and Micah's POVs, the writing (ohgosh, i really like Amy Zhang's writing!!), how the events simply fits perfectly into a domino effect. i like the friendship and romance of Janie and Micah. i hate Janie being a bitch though. lol. also the ending was a bit anti climactic. it's like: here's the ending. done. no feelings. thank you. go read your next book.

BUT as a whole, i really enjoyed this and i definitely would love to read more books by Amy Zhang :)
