Alexis Wyndham isn't quite sure what to think about her "friendship" with star quarterback, Brett Pederson. Sure, he has more brains than the entire football team combined. Not to mention that fact he's a great kisser. When he asks her to help him with his college admission essay, she isn't sure if he's doing it to spend more time with her or if he's just using her for her intelligence. But after her nemesis, Summer Hoyt, makes it clear she's not finished chasing after Brett, the war is on, and the head cheerleader will find out that hell hath no fury like a Queen B*.
My Rating:
Favorite Quotes:
“Brett was
like sweet wine or chocolate. Too much
could be a bad thing, but a little indulgence here and there was near heaven.”
“It was one of
those Disneyesque moments when the bored prince at the ball finally sees his
Cinderella, and the rest of the world fades away. The noise, the chaos, the crowds – they all
vanished. He only seemed to have eyes
for me.”
“Taylor backed
away as though she might catch old-people-in-love cooties from them, but I
couldn’t move.”
My Review:
I am adoring
this series and already curious for the next installment. I enjoyed it so much I absorbed it rather
quickly as I could not seem to put it down.
Ms. McHugh does an excellent job of capturing the anxiety, thrill,
uncertainty, and disappointment of new relationships, the fear of revealing
one’s true self, and the special horrors of high school involving teenage
cliques and power struggles. She has
brought a fresh face to the vulnerabilities of that age and dressed her up as
an intelligent mean girl, and despite my typical avoidance of anything YA... I
am totally hooked. I want more - and
quickly!
