A review by forevermorepages
Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
4.0
At first, Veronica Rossi’s novel, Under the Never Sky, didn’t seem to be going anywhere. There were about one-hundred pages where the plot seemed to be moving at the speed of a snail. The two narrators (it was in split-perspective) met at the very beginning informally and met again at page one-hundred-something. Personally, I thought that a book written that way should have them formally meet much earlier. Once they met, the plot picked up and I started to enjoy it. The world inside the story was quite complex, but the story itself was even more. There were points when I didn’t understand the premise of different “realms” and other ideas weren’t explained completely. Though, besides the slow beginning and confusion, I actually enjoyed the book’s middle and end a lot. I read the majority of the book in one day (and spent the previous week trudging through the first part) because I could hardly put it down. I would have given it five stars if the whole book was hard to put down. Sadly, though, it wasn’t. I also enjoyed the two protagonist’s relationship with each other and the character development involved in their relationship. I recommend this book to dystopian future fans.
