Review: Burn for Burn - Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian


 
Looking for a new teen novel to read ?
Did you enjoy the film "John Tucker Must Die" ?
Review: Burn for Burn - Book #1 Burn for Burn Series - Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian - September 2012
Have you ever hated someone so much that you would do absolutely anything to get revenge on them ? A Burn for a Burn ? Have you ever seen the hit movie "John Tucker Must Die" ?
In a way that is exactly what this book reminded me of as we see three girls all from different classes, social standings and cliques come together in secret - with one goal in mind to get the maximum revenge on those who have hurt them so bad in the past. For Lilia , her revenge target is Alex - a guy she has loved her whole entire life but he doesn't seem to notice her and when she catches him two-timing with not only Kat - a bad girl but also her sister Nat - she is furious and wants her revenge on him. Kat has had it rough and the target of all of her worries and taunts seem to come from one person - Rennie - with Lilia's help , can Kat find the perfect revenge for Rennie and meet newcomer Mary - she used to live on the island when she was younger and was the target of bullying that made her life a living hell - now she is back and wants to make her bully pay.
The only downside I had to this book which affected the fact that it only gets 4 stars rather than 5 stars was that it seemed to touch on a supernatural ability from Mary but didn't go any deeper and the ending just finished - it was like slamming up against a wall and being told thats its, no more.  Though at the stage of reading this I wasn't aware that it would be a trilogy so I am now looking forward to reading Book #2 in the series " Fire with Fire".
