This week I read:
The Rowan by Anne McCaffery
A reread. I loved this book, and loads of other Anne McCaffery books when I was 12/13. I still quite liked this one, but... well. When I was 13 the romance seemed epic, but rereading it now... it is so abrupt. After one telepathic conversation, The Rowan is ~desperately in love~ with Jeff Raven -who, I might add, is a giant douche. And not a giant douche in an attractive way either.
Handcuffs by Bethany Griffin
Summary: Parker Prescott was caught by her parents in a compromising position with her ex-boyfriend involving handcuffs. This isn't supposed to happen because Parker is the good middle child. Her wild older sister and ADHD younger brother are the troublemakers. Meanwhile Parker is the main focus of a popular school gossip blog.
I like it when the main character is beautiful/envied by all around her, but has no idea and is inwardly a giant insecure mess. This book was okay; I have nothing to say about it really.
