With books missing in between, I am once again shocked at the developments I've missed. I literally gasped out loud when I learned about what happened since the last SVH:S book I've read.
The supposedly "forever" couple broke up AND Melissa is dating Ken, which makes me feel terrible for sweet Maria who keeps having ill luck in love. Conner is out of the picture (rehab) and broken up with Liz, and all those times she had ignored her academics made her ineligible for the prestigious scholarship. Jessica is back with Jeremy thanks to Jade, who apparently is her good friend now. I am always in awe of their drama!
This book went by quickly, I've finished it within 2 hours. I'm really happy with the turn of the events, and I'm glad it's a lot less toxic now. There's a lighthearted feel to SVH compared to the start of the series. But I'm always eager for more. Sadly I only have one more book on my shelf!
