Book Thirteen : Burn for Burn by Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian
"We have to be more careful," I say. "No one can ever know what we are up to. What we do together lives and dies with us." Then I clear my throat, because this is the most important part. "And if we're really going to do this, no one can bail halfway through. If you're in, you need to be in until the very end. Until we all get what we want. . . If you can't swear to that, we might as well pretend like tonight never happened."
Mary nods first, then Lillia. I smile, because we're doing this.
Postcard-perfect Jar Island is the kind of place where nobody locks their doors at night, where parents can sleep easy, knowing their daughters are tucked away safe and sound in their beds.
But bad things can happen, even to good girls . . . and sometimes, the only way to make things right is to do something wrong.
Lillia used to trust boys, but not anymore. Not after what happened this summer. And she’ll do whatever it takes to protect her little sister from the same fate.
Kat is over the rumors, the insults, the cruel jokes made at her expense. It all goes back to one person--her ex-best friend. Someone needs to teach her a lesson, and, with Lillia and Mary behind her, Kat feels up to the task.
Four years ago, Mary left Jar Island because of a boy. But she’s not the same girl anymore. Now that she’s got friends who have her back, he's going to be in big trouble.
Three very different girls who come together to make things right. Will they go too far?
My Thoughts : This was a really random read for me. I went to visit my family and forgot the book I was reading. I only had my kindle app so . . . yeah I read this one.
This book follows three girls, Lillia, Kat, and Mary. Three very different girls each seeking revenge on a different person, Alex, Rennie, and Reeve. They join forces to help each other out. The things they do to Alex are actually pretty funny but then things start getting more intense and they end up taking one prank a little too far. This book is wrote from each girls perspective. This could get really confusing or annoying, but it didn't. I found each chapter flowing quite nicely into the next. I did find the characters to be a little blah and not very interesting. They were three girls looking to get a little pay back basically.
This book was just ok for me. It didn't grip me but it was a really quick easy read. It also ended with a tiny bit of a cliff hanger and leaves me debating whether or not to keep going with this series. I think if you are a teenage girl who likes the movie, John Tucker Must Die, then this is your book.
