The Other Side of Together by Emily Cox and Nicole Allen – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez
The Other Side of Together by Emily Cox
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I am so NOT okay with that ending. Seriously?! I was not prepared for a cliff hanger. There better be a followup book! I loved The Other Side of Together, and did not want to put it down. However, it did turn a little deeper than I expected. In the beginning I was talking it up to my 14 year old, saying how I thought she would love it. But now I’m second guessing because it was not the light-hearted teen love story I expected. Mei Li and Marcus develop a strong bond, very quickly. They are practically neighbors, but grew up totally different lives. Mei Li feels obligated to make choices, to keep her family safe. But perhaps her parents don’t even want the same things for her, we don’t know the whole story yet. I knew Nick was a bad guy, but it went beyond what I expected. And now I want to know how everyone else is involved. Not so patiently awaiting a continued story….
