Burn for Burn by Jenny Han, Siobhan Vivian
4.0
If you are looking for drama, look no further! This book is packed with it and lots of back stabbing, lying, misunderstandings and of course, revenge!
I can't imagine living on a "island" like that and knowing everyone and everyone knowing everyones business.
I liked how the story was broken up into 3 different characters. You really got to know each of the characters and their back stories. I liked Lillia and Kat but not sure about Mary, there is something that this story didn't cover and I think it might come out in the next book in the series. Mary's aunt was particular strange. Overall, some of the characters were kind of whiny and I wanted to jump in the book and give them a slap but hey, aren't all teenagers like that.
The reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because some of the flashbacks were kind of confusing and I wish the letters were in italized or something like that (I read an ARC so I'm not sure if the finished copy is like that).
The ending kind of a had a Carrie twist that I sort of saw coming which was interesting and kind of left me feeling confused and wanting to know more.
This book reminds me a lot of the tv shows/book series Pretty Little Liars and Revenge. I think I will read on in the series.
