A review by srousseau
Fade to Blue by Sean Beaudoin
3.0
This was the most confusing book I've ever read. And I read a book in which the 12 or so characters you were introduced to were really only 2 people with multiple personalities. In this book just about the time you thought you knew what was going on everything fell apart. Then there's a chapter written as a comic in the middle. I liked the characters. I just wasn't sure what was happening from one chapter to another.
There are a few narrators. Sophie Blue, aka Gothika, has a brother O.S. whose real name is Kenny. Her father disappeared and her mother is not dealing well with this. Kenny Fade (pronounced Fa - day) is the basketball hero of the school. Kenny Fade and Sophie have nothing in common and don't even interact much at school. But, you discover, they both think they are losing their minds. Most of the chapters are from one of their points of view. Each chapter makes sense by itself. I had trouble putting them together. If you read it, post what you thought.
