    A real page-turner!  Don't skip this one!
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2013*

Pivot Point is one of those novels that really sticks with you.  I finished it a month or two ago, but find myself thinking about it quite often.When I first picked it up I was worried that the dual timelines would be confusing, but they weren't.  I was easily able to follow along with both timelines and while I enjoyed one more than the other, I thought both were extremely well written.I used to absolutely love paranormal YA, but lately it's been so inundated with mediocre and bizarre crap that I've been leaning more towards character driven contemporary stuff instead.  Kasie West has done a great job here of writing something that is in the paranormal genre, but is so focused on the characters that the paranormal part is more of a sub-plot instead of being the main focus.Addie is our heroine and she can see the future, sort of.  When given a choice, Addie can see where each one will lead and it gives her the opportunity to pick which one she thinks is better.  The big choice of this novel is who to live with after her parents divorce - mom inside the paranormal compound, or dad in the 'real' (mundane/normal) world.  The majority of the novel follows Addie living out each choice in alternating chapters.  Each choice comes with some devastating consequences and following Addie as she figures things out and makes some really tough decisions is actually really fun.I LOVE a book that is so good I can't put it down.  I love nothing more than being kept up until 3am finishing a novel, or reading at stoplights and in lines at the store because I HAVE to know what happens next.  Pivot Point is one of those books!  The pacing is phenominal - I never got bored.  I never found myself skimming as I do in so many other books.The end is satisfying, but definitely leaves a lot of questions unanswered and I have to say, I'm REALLY anticipating the sequel to this novel!  Great debut novel by a new author!  Definitely check this one out!

    An interesting setting
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2014*

Review:I’ve heard so much positive regarding this book and the author. Having read one of her books before, I was expecting a light, humorous story with likable characters. I, however, got something different. The story while seemingly at first coming across light, had layers and layers hidden beneath that made it more complicated and serious than initially thought. It also appeared to be a paranormal school based rom-com with jokes and decent humour, but in reality there weren’t a lot of reasons to laugh. And, while I liked the heroine and Trevor, everyone else wasn’t entirely easy to grow fond of or at all, even Addie at times. BUT, all this doesn’t mean that the book wasn’t good, no, it just means I expected one thing, but received something completely different.This vaguely came across as semi dystopian when I first started reading, but I was so glad it most definitely was not, since I’m not overly fond of that genre. And although a secluded super-secret commune for extraordinary people for a background isn’t something that has me jumping for joy, it worked well in this story, because it wasn’t the main focus and there were no conspiracies or evil intentions between the normal world and the community. I liked that, even while the latter was a secret, they coexisted quite successfully. Also, Addie’s relationships were in the foreground and all the paranormal and powers stuff was just the illustrating background and I really enjoyed that relatable and simple focus in the story.The premise is without a doubt quite intriguing, fresh and unpredictable in regards to what will happen and how. Thus, it was quite exciting to follow Addie in determining which path is right for her future. But, even when she knew the outcomes, the choice wasn’t as simple, because both ways had her lose and gain something. In the end, I felt that the decision for either future wasn’t really her choice and it was made for her due to the circumstance. I would have, however, hoped to see her make an objective selection based on what would benefit and be best for her.I also have to mention the love triangle, which wasn’t one in the classical sense of the word. I can’t stand those, but due to the peculiarities of the story, it managed to find a loophole and actually make it work. It was a love triangle that didn’t exist – it was simple and complicated at the same time.The book went by really fast, which was partially due to the altering focus between the two possible futures in each separate chapter. You simply had to read on to find out what would occur in the next. Despite the book flying by, nothing much happened between the first and last chapters. The ending, however, seriously picked up the pace and ended with a bang.The two futures were mostly defined by the romances in each. Both were sweet and cute, despite the boys being complete opposites, but all was not as it seemed on the outside, at least with one of the potential boyfriends. I also loved that despite the two different paths, Addie still met and connected with the guy I was rooting for in the future version that wasn’t theirs.Overall:I don’t know, from one side I enjoyed the story, it was original and felt special, but at the same time there were minor aspects that put me off (Laila for one counts as at least 10 con points – she was irrational, childish and annoying). But then again, the romance was incredibly adorable and I was left wanting more. Ah, just read it and decide for yourself!

    Why did I wait so long?
  

*by K***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 4, 2013*

You know that moment you finish a book and think 'why the hell did I wait SO LONG TO READ THIS?' - that feeling is exactly how I felt about Pivot Point.  It's been sitting on my shelves since shortly after its release, and although it had received glowing reviews from nearly every YA reader I know, I still passed it over for other books on at least a dozen occasions.It was only when I was 'browsing' (aka I have tried 4 or 5 books and they were all rubbish) my shelves for something I knew other people had loved that I decided it was time to get reading Pivot Point - and then I devoured the damn thing.As I'm not a huge fan of paranormal novels as a general rule, I was a bit iffy about that element - sometimes they work for me and other times they don't - but luckily in Pivot Point although it wasn't my favourite part of the story, it works really well.  I think the key point is that it's believable - West has plausible explanations for the whole paranormal aspect - how they live, how they can be undetected and not be a flaming dystopian mess.But by far, the stars of the show are the characters.  I loved Addie - she's a bookworm which automatically gets bonus points, but she also has a sarcasm that I really enjoyed, a determination that made me admire her, and a loyalty that made me want to be friends with her.  In other words, she's the kind of character I'd love to see far more often in YA - she's down to earth, likeable and feels like a real person.Then there are the boys.  I'm not a fan-girl when it comes to book boys - I think I've used the phrase 'book boyfriend' a grand total of once, but all I will say is 'oh, Trevor'.  I loved him from the first moment he was introduced as a character - quiet but not grumpy, cute but not arrogant, damaged but not angry and the absolute perfect match for Addie.  All the while I was reading Pivot Point, I just wanted more of him, especially towards the ending when he has the most heartbreaking line pretty much ever (which I won't add here as it's a bit spoilery).I honestly thought Pivot Point would be just another YA paranormal romance, but it was so much more.  There is also a thriller/mystery element which I didn't expect and yet I really really enjoyed it - for me it added an extra level to the whole package that made it just a fabulous read.If Pivot Point is languishing on your shelves waiting for 'one day' - go straight to your bookshelf right now (yes, NOW) and read it - it will definitely be worth your time!
