Vain

ebook young adult review

If you’re looking for a story about a good, humble girl, who’s been hurt by someone she thought she could trust, only to find out she’s not as vulnerable as she thought she was and discovers an empowering side of herself that falls in love with the guy who helps her find that self, blah, blah, blah...then you’re gonna’ hate my story.

Because mine is not the story you read every time you bend back the cover of the latest trend novel. It’s not the “I can do anything, now that I’ve found you/I’m misunderstood but one day you’ll find me irresistible because of it” tale. Why? Because, if I was being honest with you, I’m a complete witch. There’s nothing redeeming about me. I’m a friend using, drug abusing, sex addict from Los Angeles. I’m every girlfriend’s worst nightmare and every boy’s fantasy.

I’m Sophie Price...And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most envied girl to the girl no one wanted around and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.

I am showing you the old cover verse the New cover just incase you saw this book & passed it up.
Old Cover looks like it's going to be a Werewolf paranormal book but it's anything but!
 Which the Author heard what everyone said and revamped it!.


First off there is no hot steamy sex in this book.......Hot Steamy make out sessions & undeniable physical attraction but that's it- it. This is a Young Adult book and my Motto is anything that swoons the heart is Lady Porn because the Heart is directly connected to the crotch :). 
Now with the lack of sex it certainly doesn't make it any less of a book- 
this book is hands down Fabulous! 
It is a beautifully sad wonderful heart warming story about one girls transformation and when she is forced home how her past life treats her. I of course started the book loathing Sophie and actually feeling sorry for her. Ian of course I loved him off the bat but then finding out about his past life made me say Wow and how much him and Sophie had in common and actually wondering 
who had crueler parents- Still a toss up but one of them seems to 
redeem themselves at the end. The odd thing in this book was there were 2 loose ends that never got answered-at the beginning of the book there is a Jerreck who I assume was part of Sophia group and passed away but not sure how- I think it would have been nice to throw a paragraph in there on how he died. Then there is a reference to Ian having maybe gotten someone pregnant but no elaboration- that one for sure needed some follow up. 
Fabulous Ending!

Quotes:

"I rule this roost because i'm the most wanted by all the guys, and all the girls want to be my friend because of it."

"I'd been called beautiful so many times. It gratified me, validated me, bit it was all empty, a facade."

"Proximity to Ian Aberdeen was my kryptonite."

"The shortest distance between two points is the line from me to you."
