Review:Ellen Hopkins never disappoints. I have yet to get a book from her that I haven't liked. I never want to put her books down, and the way she puts words together never ceases to amaze me. I'll buy very book she writes because I absolutely love each one. Read more

Review:So i was referred by a friend who absolutely loved this book and I have got say I was more than a little unimpressed. First of the character development is horribly lacking and it seemed to me she described every one in this book by hair color and 'startling eyes'. besides that there was no in depth plot it just stumbled along, and then it was like it had been two months in Aspen Springs, and i was like were the hell did all the time go? The love was a bit tacky but it deserves 2 and half stars... Read more
Review:Epic Fail was a fabulous cute, feel-good novel!

Lucky for her though, her new roommates won't allow her to do that. Suzanne, ... Read more
Review:The book was all right. I would recommend this book to people if you like mafia movies because the book was a good mafia book. Another thing I like was the characters it was three main characters: Vince, Kendra and the father named Anothony. Vince was more Like a fearless type of person. Kenra like a prep stuck up. And you have Anothony the killer that didn't care who he killet. I found these characters very interest and fun. Read more
Review:It's an awesome sequel. However, I hate when sequels have a change in narration. It works here, but it's distracting. I really wished it was all from his viewpoint, but this sequel was missing something. After the first book I was left waiting for the sequel. Now? I really could care less about the next book. The ending should have been a good cliff hanger, yet I'm just left thinking really? Did that really just happen? It's outrageous. Read more
