4.5

As soon as I started reading, I was reminded immediately of why I love Lex Croucher's books so much.
  • The characters are incredible and, like clockwork, steal your heart away in one way or another. 
  • You get just the right amount of drama, a perfect balance of tension and funny banter, action and hilarious predicaments.
  • The writing style is absolutely delectable, it's like an all you can eat buffet that is actually delicious and keeps you coming back for more until there is nothing left and you can just sit and digest, blissful and fully satisfied. 

While Gwen and Art is still and probably will always be my favorite, this YA retelling did not disappoint and I cannot wait to read their next book!
