Chaos Theory by Kelly Anne Blount, Lynn Rush
3.0
Getting dumped is pretty brutal, getting dumped publicly and having it go viral on Instagram is the stuff nightmares are made of, at least for a high school teenager.
Victoria has made a vow, to spurn Todd by bringing the hottest dates to the Winter events. Coincidentally, in walks online sensation Corey, who is looking for a change of pace from the fast life of Hollywood to chill and recuperate. They strike up a contractural fake- relationship which happens to be one of my favorite tropes.
Corey had a nice depth of character as having high exposure to the public eye can chip away at your individualism as you are constantly told to be this or say that. I loved that Corey was able to embrace his songwriting as an outlet for emotional release. I appreciated that Corey was allowed to build bromances with a couple of the characters, in particular Tony, who I can't wait to read more about!
Victoria and Corey's relationship was fun, flirty and a breeze to read, I loved how sweet their interactions were and the hilarious "couple-off" moments between them and Todd.
My peeve with this book is that I didn't see as much realism as I have become accustomed to within the Twin River High series. By this I mean despite covering hard topics such as Cancer, alcoholism, and vehicular accidents this read more like a cute rom-com, not to say that anything is wrong with this, but I can't say I was as emotionally invested as with the previous characters.
Speaking of the other characters, I was tickled pink to see Hope and Landon's cameos as they were one of my favorite couples from the series. This is a great young adult, romantic comedy with a nice tinge of revenge.
Thank you to Entangled publishing, the authors, and NetGalley for providing me with an arc.
