Review: To Whatever End by Lindsey Frydman

 

Synopsis

What if with every person you met, after just one touch, you have a vision of the last time you’ll see each other? Ever. Normally, these visions are innocent—two friends just drifting apart, a random stranger that brushed past you then never crossed your path again.

But not today.

When I accidentally touch him, within only moments of our first meeting, I’m bombarded by visions of his death.

And from what I can see, I’m the reason he dies.

Now I just need to figure out why, and how to stop this from happening. Because not only am I to blame, but his very last words to me are...I love you.

Review

This is an interesting story about a girl who can predict how any of her relationship is going to end. Her ability has affected her life a lot, and not in a good way. She is beginning to realize that love or happily ever after are not in the cards for her. And then she meets Griffin. Her perspective on life starts to change. She begins to understand that even though she can never change the future, but still she has a choice. She can either deal with whatever comes her way of walk away, letting someone else deal with the situation.

Griffin is intrigued by the beautiful girl he meets in an art gallery. Soon the two are spending time together and exploring their relationship, but the future holds, he doesn't know. All he knows is that he likes her and wants to be with her.

It's a fast-paced and well-written story. Less of a fantasy and more of a mystery, I enjoyed reading it. Although I think that we didn't get to know more about Quinn's mysterious ability (or curse as she calls it) but I find the premise very interesting. I also loved both the main characters and found it to be a quick read. I'd definitely recommend it to others, especially to readers who enjoy a good YA novel.

P.S. I received a complementary copy of this book via NetGalley.
