Title: You and Everything After (Falling, #2)

I’m that teenaged girl who has MS. You haven’t met me, but you’ve seen me around. You probably know my sister. We’re twins, and she’s the pretty one. Maybe you’ve heard about my reputation, how much I like to hook up at parties—how easy it is to get me in bed, get what you want, and forget about me after.

Forget what you think you know. I’m leaving that girl behind.

College is all about new beginnings. So from now on—I’m just Cass. And the rest…it isn’t written yet. And no one else gets to write my story for me.

--------

“Tyson Preeter doesn’t do can’t.”

That’s exactly what I want people to think when they see me. I am strong, invincible, confident, intelligent—arrogant. I’m the man who always finds a way around, over and through—until there’s nothing left. Since losing my ability to walk six years ago, I’ve relearned life. I don’t need sympathy. I don’t want charity. And I don’t do love.

It’s better this way, saves my disappointments for me, and me alone, and it saves my strength for everything I want.

But Cass Owens is about to wreck everything. She’s about to steal all of my strength away from me, because she needs it more. She’s about to break all of my rules, and break down all of my walls. She’s about to own me…completely.

And I’m about to let her.

* This is the second book in the Falling Series, and it is scheduled to release Dec. 5. Book 1, This Is Falling, is out now. Each book can be read as a standalone and will focus on a different couple.

The second book in the series happens in almost the same time space as This is Falling, but this on goes a bit further to the future, but not much. Maybe a month or two. I read both of those books right after each other so to me it felt like it was one loooooong book with four different POVs. But to be honest I forgot half of the things that happened in THIS IS FALLING before I even started this one.

I liked both of those books but neither of them was really remarkable or unforgettable.

Cass is the invisible twin. She loves to play fotball but she also has MS which complicates everything. She has to be careful about how much she tires herself and watch for symptoms all the time. Her family is really hard on her and although she loves her twin sister Paige, she wants to shine too.

Ty's been bound to wheelchair since he was sixteen, he's come to terms with it and lives his life to the fullest now. He's emotionally unavaliable to everyone except him brother, parents and ex-girlfriend, the only girl he ever loved.

Then he meets Cass and she just blowed his mind. She's different than all the other girls. She's more real. And she's wormed her way into his heart without either of them noticing. But Ty's not ready to let her stay there yet.

To be honest, while I enjoyed YOU AND EVERYTHING AFTER I felt like something was missing. I didn't feel the connection between Ty and Cass. There wasn't "the spark" that would light the book on fire.

I expected that Ty's wheelchair situation would be talked about more and sometimes I felt that it was purposefully ignored. I mean, does he really have no problems getting somewhere, changing clothes, showering..?

It was a decent book with decent characters with a decent storyline. But is "decent" enough for it to be amazing/unforgetable/mind-blowing? I don't think so.
