Miss Mayhem by Rachel Hawkins

4.0

4 stars. This was one of my most anticipated releases of this year, but I'm afraid I had too high hopes for it. It wasn't bad, but I felt like it could have been so much more! There were some scenes that seemed unnecessary, and I was upset at the typical YA situation where a couple isn't telling each other anything, then they fight and make it complicated for no reason, and then break up. The last few chapters I thought were really good! They were quality chapters, and actually felt like a continuation of Rebel Belle, if that makes any sense.

I'd be lying if I said my favorite part about this series wasn't David Stark. Never have I wanted a fictional character to be real and date me (with the exception of Wesley Ayers) more than now. I LOVED his character in this book, and I really hope we'll get to read from his POV sometime. Harper was still consistent character-wise, but while I found her personality likable in Rebel Belle, it was more annoying in this book to me.

Rachel Hawkins' writing is still fantastic, but that ending though. Why??? It was just starting to get good, and then ahhhh...I don't want to wait for the next book! I honestly have no idea what to expect, but as long as David's involved, I'm sticking with this series ;)
