Review: Star Cursed

Star Cursed by Jessica Spotswood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


CLIFFHANGER!!!!!

I have so many questions! Like, what the hell Maura!?! I really really hate you!
And Finn and Cate!!!!
What will happen to the oracle?!?!



Here are my reactions:

1. Romance
- I just have to say, Finn and Cate! No words. I just love their love story in this one. It started to be so innocent in book 1 then it all comes to this. I'm not saying it's bad. I just agree with Cate. It's wicked. :)

“You worry about what the prophecy means for them, but I worry about you, Cate. Someone’s got to. You’d sacrifice yourself in a second to keep them safe. You’d sacrifice us.”
His words hang there between us, a reminder that I already have.
““I don’t know if I could do it again,” I say truthfully.
“I know being here is dangerous for you. I should send you away, but I don’t want to give you up. It’s selfish of me.”
“Good. Be selfish.” “Finn’s mouth claims mine in a searing kiss.

Look at that! I really like that part.

What the hell!
Why did Finn has to be like that at the end of the book?! It's heartbreaking! Especially for Cate!!!!!!!!!

2. Sisters
- sisters are supposed to be there for each other. Always. Yes, sometimes there're jealousy and anger but those always come to an end. I don't what Maura's problem is. But i really really hate that girl! Right now, here's what i think of her


3. The prophecy:
“Three sisters, One brings healing and death. One brings ruin. The strongest will bring peace, but it will require a sacrifice. That’s what the prophecy says.”
- i want more! I really need the third book!

before reading:
almost there! i can almost see it! sooOOoo excited for this book! June 18!

Review: Charade

Charade by Nyrae Dawn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The sweetest and sexiest book i've read by Nyrae Dawn!!!



Charade is about pretending at first. But the more you pretend, the more it becomes real and you couldn't go back, because deep inside you know that you are changing, and it's for the better.

Just listening to the song Distance by Christina Perri is like awwww. :) it's the perfect song for this book actually!

"Please don't stand so close to me
I'm having trouble breathing
I'm afraid of what you'll see right now
I give you everything I am
All my broken heart beats
Until I know you'll understand

And I will make sure to keep my distance
Say, "I love you," when you're not listening
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?"


This one is how I imagine what Cole's feelings for Cheyenne: song is called Tiny Dancer by Elton John
"But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly slowly

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today"

The best book of Nyrae Dawn and my favorite!!!! :)

Review: Saving Grace

Saving Grace by Christine Zolendz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Let me ask you something, what would you do if for 2000++ years, you've spent your life loving and searching for someone that you've been saving yourself for, then you found out that he doesn't want you as much as you did?
My reaction would have to be WHAT THE F*CK?!?!?!!! I've loved you for soooooo looooong!

So that was my first reaction after reading this book. Grrr.

Other thoughts:
1. Wasting all these tears.
Sometimes you wake up and realize that loving someone is not worth it yet you can't really help it if your heart is screaming differently. In this book, i found the perfect song for Grace! It's called "Wasting All These Tears" by Cassadee Pope:

"I tried to find you at the bottom of a bottle
Laying down on the bathroom floor
My loneliness was a rattle in the windows
You said you don't want me anymore
And you left me
Standing on a corner crying,
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember
Why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
Cause you didn't give a damn about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all these tears on you
These tears on you"

Bottom line it hurts when someone makes you feel shitty. Lol. Ok let me rephrase that. It hurts when someone you love suddenly abandons you or didn't choose to be with you after all the things that you've suffered just for him.

2. Just a fool for you.
Again, acting foolish is different from being fooled. Arrrghhh! Perfect sooooong for Grace and Shane! This was like the part when Grace was in Booze trying to forget about everything by drinking. Song is "Just a Fool" by Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton
"Another shot of whiskey please bartender
Keep it coming til I don't remember at all
How bad it hurts when you're gone (no no no no)
Turn the music up a little bit louder
Just gotta get past the midnight hour (uh huh)
Maybe tomorrow it won't be this hard
Who am I kidding?
I know what I'm missing
Love, I had my heart set on you
But nothing else hurts like you do
Who knew that love was so cruel (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I waited and waited so long
For someone who'll never come home
It's my fault to think you'd be true (yeah, yeah)
I'm just a fool"

3. Booze and drinks all over!

Yeah this book is full of drinking and partying! Seriously! All they do is drink! Party all night and trash talk and well you know some x-rated stuff.

4. Sooo where can you find a guy just like Conner?
- gosh Lea is so lucky!

5. Drama-filled book!
Back and forth back and forth! Drama drama dramaaaaa!

6. Angels. Yup. 'Nuff said.

Review: Fall From Grace

Fall From Grace by Christine Zolendz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Something about angels.

You know I didn't expect to like this book, but well, let me just say that I have a weakness for angel stories.

Yup, let me also ask, how many times have you read the archangel Gabriel in books like this? Lol. Many versions of Gabriel, right? Sometimes he's the good hero, sometimes a supporting role, an uncle, a friend, father, brother and worse the enemy! The enemy who thinks what he does is the right thing yet for others it is not. The deadly kind of evil... Yeah, i'm getting carried away, am I?

Like Tucker said in this book, anyhooo,

This book reminds me again for the third time, of Mirrors by Justin Timberlake,

"I don't wanna lose you now,
I'm looking right at the other half of me (LITERALLY)
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold (ALL THIS TIME)
Show me how to fight for now.
And i tell you baby it wasn't easy
Coming back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along."

Yeah! They were right at each other's faces all along!!!!!

Freakin' Gabriel. It all comes down to Gabriel!!!!!!

Thoughts:
1. Love is full of mysteries.
- i don't know why I just typed that. I just think it fits the story. Lol.
2. Keep you're eyes open.
- please OPEN your eyes and see through the person in front of you. Sometimes you have to open your eyes and your heart to someone. But then again, you really can't know something just by doing these. You have that mind of yours that puts certain things like conscience and facts about your life that sometimes makes you question a lot of things. Sometimes it could keep you also from grasping the truth and from finding out the one that you're looking for.
3. You're so vain.
- Shane you are so vain. You really think this song is about you? You are so vain. Lol

That ending!!!!


Next book please :)

Review: Darkness Before Dawn

Darkness Before Dawn by Claire Contreras
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


  "I love you to the moon and back, baby."

- Cole Murphy

Well, i don't know what to say because I only know that I enjoyed reading this book. A lot. Yeah!

Let me just share a song that fits the story of this book. How Cole and Blake felt every time they were separated. This one is called "With Me" by Sum 41:

  "I don't want this moment to ever end,
Where everything's nothing without you.
I'd wait here forever just to, to see you smile,
'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you.

Through it all, I've made my mistakes.
I stumble and fall, but I mean these words.

I want you to know,
With everything I won't let this go.
These words are my heart and soul.
I'll hold on to this moment, you know,
As I bleed my heart out to show,
And I won't let go."





The story makes you want to cry every single time. If not cry, it makes you want to scream at those people who wants to ruin their lives. I really pity both of them because they have been through a lot of tragic things. It makes them the most people with a case of bad luck! :(

Here's another song that I've come to love because of this book! I even tweeted it to Ms Claire Contreras lol. The message of the song says it all about Cole and Blake's love for each other. This one is called "Arms" by Christina Perri.

  "II never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart
But you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

You put your arms around me
And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
You put your arms around me and I'm home

How many times will you let me change my mind and turn around?
I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown

I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home

The world is coming down on me and I can't find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone"





Can i just say this is one of my favorites? Yes! Yes and yes. :)

Review: Forever Too Far

Forever Too Far by Abbi Glines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is so much better than book 2!

Thoughts: in a form of
  This Love by Maroon 5




  1. This love


- Rush and Blair? They are sooooo in love with each other! Addicted. Obsessed and can't seem to stay away from each other unless there's a big problem and they MUST stay away. Lol. But in this book you can't. It's just.. They are soo.. Err something about heaven and rainbows and pure bliss. I cannot form a right sentence right now. LOL.

  2. This love has taken its toll on me.


- Grant Carter, hello there. I know he wanted to take a chance with Nan, but being the crazy ass bitch that she is, it's a really good thing that he's over her. GOODBYE TO YOU NANETTE. You annoying bitch. Grrr i hate you before, i hate you more. I might hate you more in the next book!

  3. She said goodbye, too many times before.


- no matter how many times Blair left Rush, she will always forgive him and take him back. Same with Rush. I love the dramaaaaa!

  4. And my heart is breaking in front of me.


- how many times did Blair and Rush broke each others hearts? Can you count? I think I've lost count. Anyway, Nan's heart is breaking too. I don't pity her because i hate her. But i don't like to be in her situation as well. She's crazy, yes. But she has a very troublesome life. She has issues that are heartbreaking for a person like her who feels so alone. But she shouldn't blame Blair all the time! Blair has bigger issues than her!!!! The one who got her heart broken big time in this series was Blair! Period!

  5. But I have no choice.


- Grant meet Harlow. Harlow meet Grant. I am so excited about this new pair! Or soon to be a pair. (Gosh! Let me have that book already!) Grant has no choice but to stay away from Harlow because, well she's Nan's sister! But he can't help it that she's a freakin goddess to his eyes. Harlow is shy as in very shy. But she can't help it if she feels something from Grant. He makes her nervous and she has no choice but to stay very far away from him.

  6. Cause I won't say goodbye anymore.


- Rush won't ever say goodbye to Blair again. He's keeping what's his. Always. The baby, he will forever cherish and love. He will not leave them and choose others over Blair and his baby, Nate. Never again. His family comes first. I knoooow, that's very manly and very Rush. Lol. Gotta love that guy.


Whew! What a ride! Love this last book! 4STARS!

Review: Before Now

Before Now by Cheryl McIntyre
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 Stars!!!! I'm such a sucker for sweet asshole-bad boys falling in love with super sweet caring good girls. I know i know opposites attract and this is such a cliche, but come ON! It's so freakin' adorable!!!!

Just look at that right there!

This reminds me of Park and Lucy plus this song kept on playing in my head while reading:

"You're such a hard act for me to follow
Love me today don't leave me tomorrow, yeah
But if I fall for you, I'll never recover
If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

I really wanna love somebody
I really wanna dance the night away
I know we're only half way there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way
I really wanna touch somebody
I think about you every single day
I know we're only half way there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way"
Love Somebody by Maroon 5

For me, this is how Lucy feels because she can't stop what she's feeling and her heart and body is demanding for Park. Yes she's scared because she doesn't have that assurance that this boy will not break her; but she can't help it if her heart is screaming for someone so difficult.

For Park, this song fits him as well because just like Lucy he's also scared. Scared that if he gave it all he'll come breaking down again if all hell breaks lose. He knows he wants Lucy so bad but he doesn't think he can manage to live if he lose her too.

Thoughts:
1. I think about you every single day.
- reading this line from both of their POVs was just so heart melting. If you can't stop thinking about each other, maybe you should be together already! I mean come on! Yes, you have your issues but what can you do if that person is the one that makes you really happy and makes you feel like you can breathe easily? Go for it!

2. Wake up already!
- stop pushing that person away!!!! You will only keep on hurting yourself. Didn't you realize that if you feel hurt because of your actions that you are actually hurting that other person as well? Stop and think for a second, ok!?!

3. Stop messing around! All the waiting!
- just for the love of ---- stop it! It's really good that you have that capability to wait every singe time! But i really love it that you gave voice to it. You shouldn't wait like that if you always end up being the loser or the one who gets nothing out of it. I've heard of unconditional love but sometimes it looks like your suffering because of having those feelings.

4. Of you sweet boy.
- i can't even--- i just don't... I can't help but smile! That ending!!!! :D

5. You of all people should know that you guys are PERFECT for each other!
- just perfect.

Review: Obsession

Obsession by Jennifer L. Armentrout
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

AFTER READING:
I still prefer Daemon, but Hunter is simply irresistible as well!

Here's a song that I just think fits the story of Serena and Hunter.
"Letting darkness grow
As if we need its palette and we need its colour
But now I've seen it through
And now I know the truth
That anything could happen
Anything could happen"
--Anything Could Happen by Ellie Goulding

For more she doesn't even know her life will turn out that way. So yeah anything could happen. As for Hunter, he knows some crazy stupid shit are happening but then there are so much of those that he still doesn't know. Now, he knows a lot and that's just mind boggling.
I know one thing though, he will not stop protecting what's his. :)

Other thoughts:
1. Aliens are good or bad?
- or better yet, Luxen or Arum? I don't even know anymoreeee! Makes me want to read Origin now!
2. Daemon you lover alien you.
- sooooo i'm guessing Daemon was there to save Katy? Hmmm
3. For the life of aliens what the hell?!
- i don't know what's gonna happen but I'm really excited. Will this get a second book?
4. Romance in that cabin.
- can i just say that this book was really hot! Makes me wanna say BURN all the time Emma Stone style.
5. Hunter you get easily distracted and things that come out of your d*mn mouth. Oh boy!
- that's just it. You get easily distracted!


BEFORE READING:guysss stop it.


since I can't seem to stop myself from reading all the updates in my feed about this book, i've decided to stop reading Suddenly Royal and start this one. yeah i'm that weak. and YES you are that good Ms Armentrout. lol.

will start this after work.

Review: Slammed

Slammed by Colleen Hoover
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Like what i told Colleen Hoover on Twitter, this book was bittersweet but I can't help but swoon every time! Makes me want to bawl and throw a tantrum because it hurts reading some of the scenes here. Over-all it was really enjoyable. :)

And while I was reading book 2 i heard the perfect song for what Will and Lake were feeling when they were hurting with all the heartbreak and lost that they experienced in Book 1.

That desperate feeling of not having what you want most in life because there are so many factors that you have to get pass through.

The song is Show Me What I'm Looking For by Carolina Liar
Wait, I’m wrong
Should have done better than this
Please, I’ll be strong
I’m finding it hard to resist
So show me what I’m looking for
Save me, I’m lost
Oh Lord, I’ve been waiting for you
I’ll pay any cost
Save me from being confused
Show me what I’m looking for
Show me what I’m looking for
oh Lord
Don’t let go
I’ve wanted this far too long
Mistakes become regrets
I’ve learned to love abuse

Yes and yes! Very Will and Lake!

Review: Until Fountain Bridge

Until Fountain Bridge by Samantha Young
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This made me cry :((

“I wanted to understand him. I tried to understand the reasons behind people’s actions

because I wanted to believe the best in everyone. But all I knew was that I loved him enough

to risk it all—to risk our history— for something more, and the fact that he wasn’t willing

told me he couldn’t possibly feel the way I felt about him. I didn’t want to be in a relationship with someone I loved more than he’d ever love me.”

Review: The Raven Boys

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While reading this book, i kept on saying: Hurry up! What's next?


Yeah, it's that exciting! I was very eager to know what will happen next. The story kept me interested and intrigued. It was never boring and it's very irresistible. Oh, what's more irresistible was Richard Gansey. yup. I am currently swooning at Gansey's feet. lol.

oh look here, i found my Gansey picture:


Right now, i just wanna say that I am dying to know what will happen with Blue's, "If I kiss my true love, he'll die." Obviously, it's one of the reasons why there will be other books after this one. So happy yet frustrated for the waiting though. In the book, i was really anticipating stuff like she and... then Blue will hold hands with.... or Blue will hug... yeah I can't really say the name. you have to read it! :)
I will NOT forget about the visions too! Those visions mean something. Something intense and romantic. *dying fan over here*

Here's how I picture Blue's reaction after Gansey told her that he will pay for her time for talking to his friend, Adam.




oh! did i say that the next book will come out this SEPTEMBER!?!


yeah I'd be lying if I say that I am so happy to wait that LONG!



can September be any nearer??

Review: Sweet Peril

Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

(UPDATED VERSION) It's time for some Kaidan Rowe :)

Yup this is KAIDAN! Anna you are soooo very lucky!


(written last May 4): I'm not in the mood to right a review because as of now, i really can't contain the excitement that is overpowering my mind. This book is drama filled with blissfulness at the end. Yet kinda scary as well.

(written as of May 30): Sooo, my thoughts exactly? here goes:

1. Stop it if you can't get through it.
- Sometimes enough is enough. I knooow the guy is hot and has this "quality" that really turns you on, but if you are always and I mean always hurting because "he-cannot-be-with-you" attitude is always there, maybe just maybe you should stop. Sometimes a girl can only take so much. I PITY ANNA IN THIS BOOK! Well, ok fine also Kaidan. but then it's Anna's POV sooo... yeah.

2. Some things are worth fighting for.
- This contradicts my first thought. (and yep, I know, i have to make up my mind) But then, reading this book tells me that all the hardships and heartaches, well, ok don't kick me for saying this, but maybe they ARE WORTH FIGHTING FOR? Just read this story and you'll get it! I swear!

3. Too sweet for my taste but can still make my spine tingle (wtf?)
- Yeah yeah, fine I don't really react like this but, I can't help it! Kaidan and Anna are soooooo GOOD together!

4. Parents can be the cause of your loneliness.
- Lol. I just have to say that line. I don't wanna expound since it's gonna be a spoiler for you who's reading this.

5. NEXT BOOK PLEASE! I just can't get enough. :)

I just remember a song, it's called Distance by Christina Perri:
Please don't stand so close to me; I'm having trouble breathing.
I'm afraid of what you'll see right now.
I give you everything I am, all my broken heartbeats, until I know you'll understand.
And I will make sure to keep my distance.
Say I love you when you're not listening.
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

And I keep waiting for you to take me.
You keep waiting to save what we have.

This pretty much sums up Anna and Kaidan's relationship in this book. Well, not the whole book, 'cause it gets better. :)

Review: Pushing the Limits

Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

You know how I see this book? It's about "distance".


"And I will make sure to keep my distance
Say "I love you" when you're not listening
How long can we keep this up, up, up?

And please don't stand so close to me
I'm having trouble breathing
I'm afraid of what you'll see right now
I give you everything I am"
(Distance by Christina Perri)

Yeah, I heard that song on the radio and said, S***! I can really see that in this book. :P Dramatic? Nah. Just emphatic? lol. Idk. Anyway, here, maybe I'll make more sense:

1. If I break will you still stay?
This book told me a lot of things about being brave and strong enough for yourself to get through life. It's hard to keep the people you love away from you knowing it's for the best and the right thing to do. In this book, Echo is a mess. She felt that she only comes second for every one. She never felt someone's first. Because of that she allowed herself to turn away from people that she really loves. As for Noah, well he also thought he's not good enough for Echo. What with all the problems that he has. He doesn't know what will happen to his future now that he has Echo and his brothers. These are heartbreaking moments actually. I really don't like it that people should distance themselves with these important people because it's "right". Well, what about how they feel? Is it right for them to be hurt and miserable? Is it the right thing even if it feels like your heart is shattering? I really don't think so. But then again, that's life. Sometimes we have to do things we don't want. Then again, it sucks!

2. Please hold me still.
This book also showed dependency and reliable people. I love it that this showed it pretty well and real. I mean I'm not sure if that's really how therapist deal with their patients but I can actually see it happening like that in real life. This book made me feel safe because it's actually saying that we don't have to shoulder everything in our life. We have people that we can depend on. People who are there to help us carry our baggage. Yes, sometimes we feel ashamed and guilty but that's the reason why they are there for us. They have their own say and choices and the good thing is they chose to stay with us.

3. I am not crazy. Can you tell?
Yeah, I didn't really felt the craziness in Echo's mind. Maybe because I know she's not really losing it. But her life is really crazy! Having someone you really love do something crazy as that to you. Yes, you will feel betrayed. Yes you will feel like maybe you'll turn out just like him or her. But the hardest part is actually facing every day with the same kind of mentality that's been making you doubt yourself.

4. Are you still there? I really hope so.
Noah, really loves his parents and his brothers. I love how this book made me feel that longing and loss. He really missed his parents. I really want to cry with him in those breaking parts. GOSH! His parents. Among his brothers he was the only one who really experienced how great it is to be with them. I really pity him because they died. I also feel a little angry with his brother because compared to them they can just easily forget. They didn't had the time Noah had with their parents. They are too young to feel those strong emotions and pain that Noah is having. Ok. That's just really sad.
Echo and her dad. Yeah. I don't want to say anything anymore. Spoiler. :))

5. Guilty or not, it's not your fault.
That is the truth anyway. I just felt like saying that.

Review: Being Friends with Boys

Being Friends with Boys by Terra Elan McVoy
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Again. Boys. Boys. BOYS!

That feeling when you think you've had enough of them but what you really feel is like they are everything to you? :)

1. Boys. Sometimes a girl just needs one. But a lot can be better too.
This book is about being friends with boys. They are pretty complicated sometimes because of how they react or how they view stuff in life. But most of the time they are just like just normal friends who listens and goofs around with. I really liked how Charlotte has a lot of guy friends. I also like the way they all treat each other with care and respect.

2. It's just too little too late...but maybe it's not?
The Trip/Charlotte things is driving me crazy! I really love their relationship. It's obvious that they like each other a lot. What with the long phone conversations/ notebook writing/ song swapping/ song writing and just always there for each other. Also how Char's voice in the book is saying how she's really connecting with Trip. Then he has to be all "I have to go or I don't wanna hang out with you anymore." That SUCKED so bad. I was like, "WTF? is wrong with you Trip? Do you really have to have a new girlfriend? You can't just be super close with someone then just cut someone out like that in a heart beat! You just don't! You should at least tell that person! You don't just ignore them!" So yeah, I was really devastated because I really like them for each other! Then at the end of the book, he's just there. Spilling all his feelings for Char in their notebook. I think it's great that he loves her back, but I can't help feel that it's a bit rushed. Then she sang the song that they made and it's the end. I wish there are more reconciliation bits or something. More romance between the two of them. But nooo, I just have to read it like that. Oh well. I still kinda like it.

3. But if I had you, that could be the only thing I'll ever need.
Fabian, Benji and Oliver are really great friends to Charlotte too.
Fabian with all the sensitive/ supportive thing going on. Benji, with how he's really cool with being friends and how they ended the "dating" thing. He's smart and he such a great listener too. He's the kind of guy that you can count on and makes you feel better all the time even if you're in your lowest point. Then there's Oliver, he's just the typical guy friend that you can't turn away from. He acts cool and confident. These guys are one of the great things that happened to Charlotte. They may have their fights or misunderstanding but in the end they still end up being happy and liking each other.

LOVED READING THIS.

Review: Saving Francesca

Saving Francesca by Melina Marchetta
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Super fun read!

1. I like family drama.
I really like the Spinelli family. How they all love and care for each member of the family. How they were able to deal with their mother's sickness and how they overcome all the things that happened ever since that incident. I love how Francesca is really close with her brother Luca. Most definitely I really love it that Robert and Mia are very in love with each other. LOVE IT!

2.Boys. boys. BOYS!
Ok, i'm not boy addict or obsessed with them. I just like how Frankie handled them. Made friends with them! I really liked Jimmy actually. He's a geek for sci/fi and all. And he might be a bully and irritating but he's such a good friend and respects his elders. Thomas is obnoxious. But i really like him as well. He may come out as a guy who doesn't care but he cares about people who mean something to him and he values his friends. Will Trombal. haha. I like him because Frankie likes him. He's annoying at first but he's just one of those guys who likes what he sees. He may plan a lot but he's basing it through its importance in his life. He's determined and that's good. I just don't like it that he has to hurt people because he can't help his feelings.

3. Them girls.
The friendship of Bitch spice, Butch spice, Stupid spice and Slut spice is very likable. I love them! How different they all are but they still work together and compliment each other. :) It's so good to see people connect and rely on each other like these girls do. It may looked like they are using each other at first but they end up being happy with each others' company.

4. Frankie say what?
I really like Frankie. She may be confused but the book made me see something real. It's her. She's so real. I can see people like her in the real world. I mean she's only human who deal with human emotions, chaos and drama. She's strong and is dedicated to her family. She has her imperfections but it's ok because that's what makes her likable.

5. Happy ending?
This book has a happy ending! But, although it may looked like the romance bit is a happy ending, i still wished it was the way I pictured it in my head. haha. Yeah i'm a hopeless romantic.

4 STARS!!!
