I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You
by Ally Carter
I worked at a bookstore for a long time and I avoided these kinds of books, specifically, I will admit, because of the cutesy covers. Just another frippy, shallow teen book about boys and makeup...
But it's not. It's well-written, well-plotted and, at times, funny, Is it the best book I've ever read? No. Does the heroine get on my nerves sometimes? A bit. But she does have a strong voice and an original point of view. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. A light, breezy, summertime read... Perfect for teenagers.
And I think I would have loved this book if I had read it when I was sixteen. I've just aged out of the demographic a little and somehow, chasing teenage boys just doesn't seem as important. But it's a fun read, nonetheless. Will try the next book in the series and see how it goes ...
