Fragile Line was a really good book. I’ve seen this author’s books around but this is the first one I’ve picked up. First of all, some things I noticed in this PDF edition that I appreciate enough to point out in a review… I love that the PDF format was “book size” and I love that the description was book in the front of the book so I knew what it was about when it came time to read it. Just little things I notice and make a difference to me personally.OK, so this book has three parts. Two parts are Ellie and the last part is someone else. I liked all the characters in this book. I even had a soft spot for Gwen, and that’s saying something since she was not a very likable girl. But the book was very well-written. I was not confused by the ending and it made perfect sense to me. I did cringe at the drug use. God how I hate the drugs in the YA books. But it was OK because of the way it was set up.I liked Griffin a lot. I felt very bad for him as the story progressed. He was supportive and genuine in his feelings and the way he treated Ellie. I liked Shane less than the other characters because he is the one who should’ve known her the best, not Griffin. And that made him the more selfish boyfriend, but at the end he really came through.I can’t say too much about the plot without ruining the experience, but I was captivated the entire time. It never lost my attention and even though I had a bazillion things I had to do this past weekend, I picked this book up every chance I could, I was that invested in it.Brooklyn Skye wrote a five star book. She filled it with five star characters that were both strong and sympathetic. And she took pretty much every bad characteristic in a heroine and put it into this girl, yet… it works. I liked Ellie throughout the whole story. The pacing was good, the ending was thought provoking and satisfying, and honestly, this was the best tour book I’ve read in a very long time.
