(Summary from Goodreads). The war rages on between Gemma and Hallie in the second installment of the Broken Hearts and Revenge series.
After the humiliating events on the 4th of July, Gemma's trying to handle the fact that Hallie knew who she was all along, and she was the one who stole Teddy from her. Gemma vows revenge, but things get more complicated than she planned. Ford, Gemma’s long-time crush, has arrived in the Hamptons cuter than ever. Josh is refusing to speak to her after she lied to him, and Teddy is playing champion to his beloved Marsh Warbler (in Gemma's backyard, no less).
Gemma and Hallie find themselves locked in an escalating revenge cycle. Just when Gemma thinks she has the upper hand, the biggest bombshell of all is dropped. And it’s one that threatens to change her life forever. This exciting sequel to Broken Hearts, Fences, and Other Things To Mend will leave you begging for the third installment.
I literally just finished this book and wow... I always think about revenge being like chess. You have to be one, two, even three steps ahead of your opponent and PLAN for anything. It is crazy the amount of thinking that is involved. Reading this book was like reading Gone Girl for young adults (just not as crazy...). I love how everything planned out for this book and I knew the ending before I even started it... Hahaha.
I love Ford. I can't believe I didn't realize the acronym before the end. LOL.
This story was purely for fun. It wasn't necessarily hard to read and that's why I liked it. I was in a reading slump and picked up this book at the store last week.... it was really fun to read. It helped me get out of my slump.
I honestly hate Hallie so much. I don't understand how she can have ZERO hard feelings about breaking up not only one, but two relationships and one dealing with her own brother! That is insane. If I had done that to my brother, I would feel miserable. But I have to give it to her, she's smart.... but insane.
I always love Katie/Morgan's books. They are tons of fun to read. Katie's are (in my opinion) for a younger audience. Everyone can read it, but it is like way more juvenile than Morgan's contemporary books. I look forward to reading either author's books no matter what. :)
Five out of five stars.
