They do have the star-crossed lovers aspect going for them, which is great, but as we get no flashbacks and very little history of their relationship before we know they’re in love, the relationship isn’t as interesting. Most of the time, Fleur was just a love interest in a love story that was, frankly, boring as hell. I guess it was interesting to have a majority male perspective, but I was definitely expecting more of a balance between the two perspectives. Anything good I could say about their characters was overshadowed by the disappointment that was this book.
I grow more and more disappointed with each turn of the page. They, along with their handlers and fellow seasons engage in a series of maneuvers that lead to an accidental reckoning within Gaia’s ranks. Jack, influenced by a teacher perceived as a mentor, gets the idea to escape Gaia and Chronos who control the seasons and their cycle in order to finally be with Fleur. And so the cycle continues.įleur and Jack can never be together because inter-seasonal relationships are banned, with seasons living in segregated housing upon their deaths and return to the dormitory where they reside off-season. Jack is a Winter, who’s sick and tired of being killed by Fleur, a Spring, who’s annually killed by her best friend Julio, a Summer, who is subsequently killed by his crush Amber, an Autumn.
