Free Falling Paperback – May 15, 2013

This book was okay. I wasn't overly impressed like I was with her other two books. Those were both 4.5-5 stars for me. There were some parts I really liked, some parts that were okay, then sometimes I was skimming over the text. There was a huge plot twist and I will give it to the author there, I DID NOT see that coming!!Usually a deciding factor in the book is the male lead character. I like Alpha male heroes in stories, like Clay and Liam from her other stories. BUT, Luke?!?!? He was okay I guess in the beginning, yes he was sweet, but it was a little over the top and I felt like he had a personality disorder or something. One of issues I had with the story is how much he changed in front of his friends. For example, my husband and I met our sophomore year of high school, and if we had been together for 19 months and he talked to me or said those things to his buddies I would put my foot up his a***!! There were a few times where I couldn't grasp the characters personalities. Luke was annoyingly sweet one moment, then a d***** in front of his buddies. And Maisi... Geesh, I don't feel like I connected with her hardly at all until the very end. At first you think shes some pushover for the way she allows Luke to talk to her, but 50ish pages later she punching some chick in the face. Its like she went under a complete transformation!!What saved the book from really sucking for me was Zachary Anderson... SWOON!!! I really hope she continues this story and we get to see where they end up.I'm trying to be vague bc I do not want to ruin this for anyone.All in all it was a decent read. Would I recommend it, possibly... Was it worth my time - Yes. I absolutely love reading stuff by this author and I will continue to do so.

So I loved Always You and Kirsty's other novels so I knew I'd love this one too. The story was a little different than I thought it was going to be but I still enjoyed it. Maisie has this perfect life and loves every minute of it until, the new guy Zach shows up (or doesnt in her case) and trouble starts. Her life really tilts at a party when everything crashes down around her....and thats when the real trouble starts. Maisie starts getting threatened and harassed and of course she thinks its her arch enemy aka head cheerleader witch. Of course things only heat up from there and spiral out of control, Maisie is terrified for her safety and the safety of everyone she's close to, while waiting for the police to figure it out. Now all that being said and without spoiling it, I figured out who the "bad guy" was almost from the beginning and I must say that I find it incredibly naive that no one else in this story couldn't see it. The ending was ehh for me, I was pleased with it to a certain degree but kinda wanted a lil more. Overall I truely enjoyed the story and recommend it!

I don't think, I have cried so much in my life while reading this book! First let me say I love Kirsty Moseley's books!  The Boy Who Sneaks in my Bedroom Window  and  Always You . This story is about Always You characters children. RileyBear and Clay have kids, how exciting! The twins just turned 18 and are seniors in high school. It's about Maisie(twin) thinking she has a perfect life with a happy family, great overprotective brother, perfect grades, great friends, and a perfect boyfriend that she truly loves. Until one day everything change when I new student starts school. All in one night everything changed in her life. This book becomes about threats, harrassments, fights and even deaths. You will get so invested in the characters that you fall in love and root for one and turn around and go into shock! I laughed and I cried (like cried hard) reading this book. Just thinking about this book makes me want to cry. But this book really makes you think! All of Moseley's books has teen love but she always has some kind of drama that will blow your mind. This book is a must read but you may only be able to read it once. Tear Jerker have your tissues ready!

I normally don't do reviews for books that i don't love. I really liked the first book in this series but this one not so much. Luke cheats on maisie early on in this book, so I don't think I'm giving a spoiler away in saying that. (At first Maisie leaves him, as she should since she walks in on the act.) When she leaves the party where the cheating occurs, she meets Zach, whom I love. His character is the best thing about this book. Of course Luke wants her back. When Maisie starts receiving threats throughout the book, everyone wants to keep her safe. You will love her twin brother Kyle. She constantly turns back to Luke for support, even after what he did. Her character is the reason for the low review score. She whines, feels sorry for herself and constantly puts herself in danger. Repeatedly! It gets old. She is not a strong lead. The ending will leave you with your mouth open having a WTH kind of moment. There is a short epilogue that gives you hope, but you still feel like it ended wrong. I hate giving this book a bad review, I just couldn't get past the long drug out dialogue of Maisie. You will love Zach. He is a sweetie. You will also love Kyle her brother. Maisie's best friends are nice too. So there are some good points to the book. You can always quickly scan over the repetitive parts of Maisie.

Even though this book can be read without reading Always You, I am really glad that I read Always You first because it showed the family dynamic and strength behind what the characters endure. When reading Free Falling, I had a feeling about where the story was going and felt like I had a sense of the direction the author was taking. I was kind of glad that I was right. I have to admit, I was surprised by the mystery surrounding the plot, but thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. (I'm a romantic, not much of a romantic/mystery type) I recommend this book. There were some twists throughout that made it an interesting read.

Ok so, i had to give it 4 stars for how sucked in I was. Sometimes a bit of teen angst and love is what you need to chill out. However the ending..erm I felt a bit adrift at sea to be honest. The plot was there from the start so for it to take so long climaxing I feel could've been avoided, that way we would have more of a....fulfilled ending? It's not that it was bad it's just that for a time, i was right there with her in her feelings for luke so I didnt quite get the angle of adding Zach if the ending was to just show they're still friends-possibly more. Yes i know that's a kind of spoiler but I can't articulate it otherwise. I liked the stalker aspect and for a while I did wonder. But I did figure it out. I just feel more could've been put it about the erm..aftermath had it happened sooner but still great book full of anticipation. It really did split my feelings down the middle just like hers.

**4Stars**Let me start with saying I LOVE KIRSTY MOSELEY. Like adore her writing so giving anything less than 5 stars hurts more than a little.Blurb: They say that your school years are supposed to be the best years of your life, and that you should make the most of them because you'll miss them when you're all grown up. Up until Maisie Preston's senior year, she would have totally agreed with that statement. Life was great, she had everything going for her, excellent grades, great parents, an annoying yet caring twin brother, and an impossibly sweet boyfriend. Everything was perfect - that is until the arrival of Zach Anderson. A misfit delinquent that seemed to bring with him a lot of bad karma. Is it just a coincidence that his arrival marks a significant change in Maisie's life? Up until senior year, life was perfect, but things seem to be going downhill fast.It's book is a spin off from Always You which tells the story of Riley and Clay - note: I'd read always you first, not because you need to but for 2 reasons...1. This book gives away the ending of always you2. Always you is an awesome bookKirsty's writing style is unique, touching, heartfelt, very relatable and very very loving. She can describe innocent, mesmerising and all consuming love like no other author I've ever read.Things I liked:MaisieZacharyRiley and Clay of course!Things I disliked:Not understanding why Zach was in the storyThe amount the school featured (for a YA, I was expecting more college-ish scenarios)All in all this is a touching read, I saw the ending a mile away but that's because I read the first 16 chapters when this was an unpublished book on wattpad.If your looking for a summer, beach, not too deep book - this is for you. Not Kirsty's best but love it none the less xx

If you know me, then you will be aware that I'm a huge Kirsty Moseley fan, you may be shocked to hear that I had never read Free Falling, as it was the only book of Kirsty's I'd not read I decided to right that wrong and jump in ! I had been warned it wasn't a romance story in the true sense, what it is, is a story about what happens when love goes wrong, terribly wrong, how it effects the person and those around them. It's also a companion novel to always you featuring Clay and Reily but centering on their daughter Masie.Masie has the prefect life, great friends, family, a boyfriend who adores her, but Masie's life starts to ️Free fall when Zachary Anderson arrives at Masie's school. He is the cocky bad boy, that doesn't give a crap but Masie sees a different boy, a boy she believes in - not many people believe in Zachary.This story is not the typical love story, there's no great HEA but there's no cliffhanger either what this book leaves you with is hope, hope that time heals, hope that love will find a way because they really deserve it and so do I !I don't know if Kirsty plans on writing a sequel to this but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, I want more Zachary Anderson.

So having LOVED The Boy Who Sneaks In My Bedroom Window & Always You, I was really looking forward to this book, even more so when I found out it was the companion book to Always You. I wrote 5 star reviews for both books & loved Liam & Clay, they are wonderful male leads, written perfectly for YA readers, so I was expecting more of the same from this book, I didn't get it!!! That's not to say I didn't enjoy this book, it's actually 4.30am and I've stayed up half the night reading it and now reviewing it, but I just didn't click with the characters as I have done with previous Kirsty Moseley books.This book is about Clay & Riley from Always You daughter who has just turned 18, however Clay and especially Riley have limited parts in this book with only subtle hints of their personalities & love story so you don't need to have read Always You, as this is a totally different story, and you don't need the back story for it to work.This book is a thriller and I was looking for another love story - I've read The Boy Who Sneaks In My Bedroom Window & Always You a couple of times each, but I don't think I will read this book again.If your looking for a love story similar to Kirsty Moseleys other books this won't deliver - however is you like a decent thriller you will enjoy this book. I did!I will read more by this author and would recommend her to my friends.

This book was good enough that I read the entire thing but I just found the characters to be too perfect and un-flawed to relate to them in any way. The basis of the book was good, very Pretty Little Liars in a sense, but the ending was just too unbelievable and actually kind of predictable. I figured out who it was very early on by myself. There were also a few spelling/grammar/name swap mistakes so it broke the reading flow trying to decipher what it was supposed to say but this can be forgiven. Despite all of this, a part of me did enjoy reading it to an extent otherwise I wouldn't have finished it so make of this review what you will.
