Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles

4.0

4.5 stars...

I loved it but just couldn't give it 5 stars. I could have used 'her' Spanish translation. Yes I can Google the words - sort of. But even with a translation it isn't always THE translation that was intended.

Her geographic descriptions are correct. It will never matter if you are from there but I am so there you go. She also did her homework on gangs. Her gang life wasn't sugarcoated but it's also not nearly as graphic as it could have been.

Brittany could have been a serious bitch but her sister Shelley gave her such warmth. And Shelley's bond with Alex was PRICELESS. I do,love Alex, the good and the bad. Even Mrs. Peterson is great. We so need more teachers like her.

The story...without Brittany and Alex and who they were it still would have been good, just not great.
