Book summary:
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.
Do you know what made me read this book - trailer. Yes the trailer for the book (and I also love Callum and Harper and yes the blurb), but still after seeing the trailer I wanted this and trust me that happens once in like million years.
Sophie is a girl, teenage girl, whose parents are too much into everything - themselves, jobs, other people but her daughter. That's why she is acting the way she does. Parties, drinking, boys and drugs. You'd say typical, but not quite. She is young and she only wants attention. Once when it all goes too far and she ends in jail. Then she is sent to the place where her life changes. It's not unusual to read about people whose life has changed after they had to help others, in this case children, but here it's taken to another level. It's beautiful, amazing how the author gets you into the story and makes you love Sophia so much. I honestly hated her cause she was a bitch - to use her words, but after surviving everything with her and reading this story I want her as my friend. Not to mention other characters in the book, they all make it seem more real.
At the end I want to thank whoever made this trailer, cause it created one picture in my head and later I discovered that there was a lot more. Also I'll be more than happy to read any book that Fisher Amelie ever writes.

I think this book sounds incredible as it seems different to other books. I am looking forwards to reading this one :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiI thought this was a story where she's never the same. Of course it's better when she is able to change her ways. I rather read about that then read about her abusing her life the whole time.
OdgovoriIzbrišiYeah...that transformation was really good described :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiThank you :)
I haven't heard of this before now. It sounds great, and I love when the author can completely change your opinion of a character :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiI haven't heard of this one but it sounds interesting enough. I'll have to add it to my list! Thanks for sharing, Tanja! :D
