Fire with Fire - Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian

I've got a jar full of the names of all my unread books, so that they will all get read someday, instead f gathering dust whilst I only read the new books I've bought. This is the first one I picked out, and it worked out well, since it was about night I read the next book anyway.

I don't want there to be any spoilers in my reviews, so I'll just say that Fire with Fire picks up where Burn for Burn left off. They've got revenge on Reeve, but it's not enough for Mary - he still hasn't been hurt as bad as he hurt her. 

So Mary, Lillia and Kat make a new plan, a better plan than before - to break Reeve's heart. It's clear he likes Lillia, so if she can get close enough for him to ask her out, and reject him, it'll break his little heart.

Meanwhile, Kat is trying to get into university early, and Lillia is dealing with her best friend, Rennie, ditching her and taking all of her friends - except Kat and Mary, her secret friends - away from her. 

I am really enjoying this series, even though some parts of Mary's story were beginning to put me off - but now, I'm intrigued. These books are a perfect combination of Mean Girls and John Tucker Must Die, so I highly recommend this series. Can't wait to read the final one!

Verdict: 5/5

Burn for Burn - Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian

This is the first book in the Burn for Burn series, and I read it as Addicted to YA's Book of the Month challenge. Now that I've read this one, I can't wait to read the next instalment. And luckily, I already have it ready to read!

Burn for Burn is told from the perspective of three girls. At first, I found it difficult to keep up with a three-way narrative - I much prefer a split narrative with only two characters to concentrate on - but once I got to know each girl, I didn't even need to read the chapter heading to see whose chapter it was, I just knew. And it became really easy for me to read - and very gripping! I got through most of it in the space of two days, finishing it just before I went to sleep last night.

Lilia is pretty, popular and rich. All she wants is to protect her little sister, Nadia, from the boys at her school. She freaks out when she begins to suspect she's hooking up with one of her friends. Kat's fling with Alex Lind was short-lived, as she catches him with some other girl in his car. But she has Rennie, her ex-best friend and serial shit-stirrer, in her sightss instead. Mary spent four years away, thanks to horrible bully Reeve, and now she's back to show him she survived everything he did to her. One day, these unlikely friends decide to get their revenge on Alex, Reeve and Rennie. The good girl, the loner girl and the new girl pulling pranks? No one will suspect a thing ;)

It was such an exciting read, and the ending was completely unexpected! I'm dying to know what happens, what a cliffhanger to end on! I'm just glad the next book is already out so I can find out what happens.

Verdict: 5/5
