I'm not sure why I didn't like So I'm a Double Threat. Possibly because it reminded me of the very worst parts of high school. Possibly because none of the characters were likable. Really. None of them. Not one person in this book is someone I would like to hang out with, especially not if I were in high school. Alex gets an "almost likable", but that's pretty much it. I feel like I must have missed something because this book got such great reviews on Goodreads, but I'm not going to reread to see what it was.

I won this book in a Goodreads First-reads giveaway.… (more)

Double Threat My Bleep, picks up right where book one ends. We find Megan and her bff's, Keesha and Steph starting their sophomore year of high school. They have now established their place in school. Classes are starting to get harder, but there are more parties and dances to attend too. Friendships continue to grow and are tested by miles and miles of being apart. Yes, Alex and Megan, have finally found their way to one another. But he is now in his first year of college and Megan is stuck in high school. This year is even harder on her. She has one less est friend, classes are tougher and she misses Alex like crazy. Can their feelings for one another sustain them being so far apart, with so few visits during the school year?

This is the second book in the Double Threat Series and I think it is even better than the first. We continue to watch Megan and her group of friends, grow and struggle with the choices that most teens face each day. So as silly as, what to wear. But with all the dating and relationship building that is going on, the pressure to become intimate arises. And we see first hand how Megan deals with that. We watch her grow from a young girl into this crazy busy, academic. Who tries to work hard and play harder. Megan's sophomore year seems to be the most challenging so far. Does she and Alex have what it takes to make a long distance relationship work? Can they trust one another enough to continue to move forward? Check out Book 2 and find out.… (more)
