A review by kaianicole
Pretty Fierce by Kieran Scott

3.0

Several months ago, this book was highlighted by a YA account I follow for a week or two, which meant the cover was following me around. It always cut off so just the tagline showed, "Her past isn't all Kaia's hiding..."

How was I supposed to resist that?! Hmmmm. How? You remember all those keychains and pens you could by at gas stations and souvenir shops with common names on them. Did I ever find one with Kaia on it? No. My name is even spelled the same in this book.

This book isn't exactly a great work of literature. It has the soul of a breezy summer blockbuster, complete with multiple car chases. Kaia's boyfriend, Oliver, has a"solid soccer bod," and Kaia, of course, isn't "like other girls." But since I was reading it with a playful, good humored approach, it was fun.

Also, I'll leave you with the last paragraph from the acknowledgments: "Lastly, thanks to Chris Hemsworth, who appeared in my dream one night (G-rated, people! Get your minds out of the gutter!) and inspired this story."
