I Know It's Over is a very rare YA read in that this is a book about a teen relationship that has ended (I know It's Over) but gets complicated all over again, but uncharacteristically from a male point of view. Not only is this very refreshing in YA-land, C.K. Kelly Martin also writes believably and convincingly from 16-year-old Nick's point of view, not just a male POV for the sake of a male POV. On Christmas Eve Nick finds out that his ex-girlfriend Sasha is pregnant. Through a series of flashbacks we get to experience the intense relationship between the two all over again, up until the point where Nick tells his father (Nick's parents are separated) to go back so he can talk with Sasha about what has happened and what will happen between them now. Much like in Courtney Summers' novels, C.K. Kelly Martin's writing is extremely fluent, yet to the point and without any form of sentimentalizing or sugarcoating things, making this way more emotional than you might have bargained for in the beginning. And C.K. Kelly Martin addresses a lot of things in this fairly short novel: teen love and lust, teen pregnancy, drug use, abortion, yet with such an unflinching honesty that it's hard to resist this book: PURE, UNPLANNED, PERFECT is what Nick wanted, but definitely didn't get. Instead the reader gets a very realistic, honest book about teen relationships and making the tough decisions.
