I really enjoyed Challenge Accepted. As a sucker for girl-next-door high school love stories, this was exactly my type of read. It was quick and well-written.
The growing tension between Logan and Emma was developed and unfolded without being drawn out or "same old" stuff.
Recommend for anyone looking for a light, quick read. Definitely aimed at the young adult audience but not too trite to get through.

Although there were a few spots where I did cringe, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I did laughed quite bit and loved the romantic build up.

I actually really liked Challenge Accepted. Maybe it's because of Emma and Logan being the main characters but they didn't annoy me at all. I constantly shipped the hell out of them since I was first introduced them. Especially once Logan made us think that Emma wasn't the "girl next door" kind of love. Lol, of course she was.. he just didn't know it yet.
Of course this book was cliche and predictable but I still ended up loving this book. Yes, Logan was a douche at time but I still ended up loving him. Then there's Emma, who was the nerdy and shy girl but she was lovable because she loved books. She was like my twin with books. Either way I loved them together.. especially when they weren't together and were pretending to "hang out". Oh lord, even their parents shipped them together. Plus they had dreams of them being married.. SO OF COURSE I WAS ON BOARD.
Hell, even their friends knew what was going on. UGH, these two were adorable. The ending was adorable. I loved everything about these two. I guess I should blame the wine on how much I liked this book.. but I really wont. I just seriously loved these two. They didn't annoy me endlessly. I just loved them.
Overall, I really liked this book. I enjoyed the crap out of it. I will definitely look into more books written by Amanda Abram in the future.

My absolute favorite of Amanda Abram (so I actually should give it 4,5 Stars, since I rated "the Cure for Second Lead Syndrome" 4 Stars, but there is one scene - actually two but they are kinda the same - that bothered me too much to give it more than 4 stars...).
I loved the characters, how they and their relationship evolved, the background story, the banter, the insecurities...
It got a biiiit cheesy in the end, but it's a teen romance, so it was kind of expected...
Emma was just great and she didn't change too much over the book.
About Logan - do these guys exist? Guys who are disgustingly shallow and superficial and likewise sweet, funny and caring? I guess not, but what are books for..?
What I didn't like was the whole bikini situation because why does Emma have to show herself nearly naked? And what would Logan have thought if she hadn't this "hot body"?
I could have done without the two scenes and I think his feelings would have seemed a bit more profound.
It actually stuck with me a while and it turned something sweet, real and deep into something much more shallow and immature and this is what kept me from giving more than 4 Stars.
Other than that I only missed a good explanation why their friendship changed. Was it because he took his sorrow about his mother dying out on her? There were a few hints why he started being so mean but we never really learn why.
But in all I actually loved the book and couldn't put it down. It's a reread for me.
