2.0
2.5?
This series is so overdramatic, but addicting. This was just as cheesey as the first one but with EVEN MORE ANGST (if that's even possible). The relationships between Katie and the boys can get kind of eye-rolly, and I wasn't a fan of the petty bickering between all the girls except for Yuki (who is just generally great always and needs to be in the loop so she & her friendship with Katie can have a greater role in the plot, please) and yet it's one of those things you can't put down once you're into it. Sometimes ridiculous, kind of problematic, melo-drama is just fun I guess.
I did like that Katie was a little more focused on the tasks at hand in this one compared to the first one (she was all about the boys and blushing around them regardless of the danger & situation in the first one). And despite some kind of Twlilighty paralells, Katie is no Bella at least; she might not always have her priorities straight, but she actually takes charge and isn't stuck being totally useless all the time. She actually has a good amount of influence over what happens to her.
These are definitely quick reads, so I'll probably be picking up the third one right away just so I can finish off the series (it is just 3 right?). Also I still think the series needs to be an anime or manga.
