I love how dimensional Jess’s family is and how none of the members are merely cut out characters. One thing I will always give Cabot a big plus sign for is that in most of her books the main character’s family plays a pretty big role. The good news though is we finally see a couple of developments with the Jess and Rob relationship, concerning Jess and Rob’s family. I think I knew as soon as the villain was introduced and made his whole speech (Captain Obvious much). The whole mystery plot is ridiculously easy to figure out. Grant it, Jess really doesn’t have any desire to be popular.īut there are themes of it there that just annoy me. Yeah, popularity as a plot device rarely ever works for me in a YA book anymore. I really didn’t like how popularity played a big part of this storyline. Honestly, in a lot of ways-serial killers and psychic powers aside-it felt like some of Cabot’s lackluster standalones set n the midwest. It just felt a little out of place to me in terms of the rest of the series. ![]() ![]() ![]() Yeah, if you haven’t guest this is probably my least favorite out of the original one. This one is just blah though, though there is a fair a bit of advertising for the early 2000's Espirit collection. I am really not that impressed with this series this time around, I don't know what it is. ![]()
