As a Searcher, Addison Coleman has a unique power. When faced with a choice, she has the ability to look into the future and see both outcomes. The power is supposed to prevent disaster, but when Addie's parents tell her of their planned divorce, she will have to make her toughest decision yet. In alternating chapters, Addie will experience six weeks living with her mother, and six with her father. Both futures promise both love and loss, and for Addie it will come down to which fate she is willing to live through, and who she can't live without.
A cross between Paranormal and reality, West has created the most unique novel I have read in a long time. With strong characters, and engaging plot, it was undoubtedly an understandable read. The very beginning was a little confusing, as the reader must adjust to the fictional idea of humans having mind powers must stronger than our own. But, by the end, I found myself re-reading the entire last chapter, not out of confusion, but because "I can't believe that just happened."
Pivot Point is extremely suspenseful, romantic and surprising - an outstanding debut.
I absolutely cannot wait for the sequel, Split Second to be published in February of 2014!
Pivot Point is the third book I have read this year for the 2013 YA Contemporary Challenge. All Young Adult books for this challenge must be published at some point this year in order to qualify. As of now, I have read 3 of my 10 book goal. (Just One Day, This Is What Happy Looks Like, Pivot Point)
