Now these books are entertaining. It's a bunch of high school drama put together in a series based on the seven deadly sins. I wouldn't feel right giving the series more than a one star because they didn't have really any good messages. It was all about drugs and sex and lying and cheating and revenge and smoking and drinking and stalking and people being mean. Yep. that sums up the whole series.

This is not at all the type of book I would read if I was currently in middle school or high school. The morals are way iffy and the message...I am not so sure. However, I found myself liking it despite my best intentions to despise it!

Mindless fun!

If you want a piece of crap that is mostly about the life of teenagers who have a unknown knowledge of back stabbing each other, you would love this book. Sex scenes are brought up in this book also infidelity and conquest.

“It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt—and then, that’s when the real fun starts.”

This is quality trashy teen soap opera material.

Do you enjoy drama?

Were you addicted to Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars and Mean Girls?



Well, if that’s the case, this is just what the doctor ordered.

I remember reading this series when I was in high school, but never actually finished it because stuff just happened and then I lost track of this story and then I went to college and blah blah I’ve been busy adulting.
I recently found this series in a thrift shop and decided to finally end what I started years ago. 2021 is all about finishing series for me.

Alpha girl Harper is friends with Miranda, who is just a bit too bland and too smart to be anyone's dream girl.
Harper is in love with her childhood best friend, Adam, the classic all-American jock, who in turn is dating Beth.
Adam is friends with Kane, a womaniser with zero scruples who Miranda has a crush on. But Kane has set his sights on Beth, blonde, innocent and the only girl who seems immune to his charms.
And then there's Kaia, the new girl at school, ready to make trouble wherever she goes.

I'm going to get straight to the point. The characters in this book are bad people. Literally the worst people you can meet out there, and they all live in the small town of Grace (CA), which makes me think that it must be the place on earth with the highest percentage of assholes per square metre.

To be honest, it's not every day you find me rooting for the villains and hoping their evil plans are successful. But it was just so so entertaining.

not much substance, alright characterization, plot wasn't too thrilling - i started the second one and just didn't care.

This was an ok book and somehow it kept my attention even though I wanted to put it down. The basic story line is that high school students and even a teacher want the people they can't have

Somehow not what i expected it to be yet at the same time exactly what I expected, if that at all makes since. Reading it became very tiresome. Seemed to be just like the other teen novels out today about popularity, sex, and drugs. If you liked all the other books with that subject line then this is the book for you but other than that dont waste your time.
