It sort of took me by surprise, because before that moment it was pretty light-hearted and fluffy. I still really liked it, because some part of me loves the whole mean girl story. I am definitely going to read the next book in the series. Thanks for visiting, Christina!

It sounds like a great friendship story in some ways, and I can say that I have been waiting for this book for some time. Your review has me wanting to read this book to get to the story of what happened, even though the MC seems like someone I may not like too much.

I never would have guessed it gets dark toward the end, and I'm not a huge fan of revenge stories with mean girls, so I'm think I'll take a pass on this one. I do like that Gemma gets into all sorts of embarrassing situations though, that always instantly connects me to a character because I can more than sympathize:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244224993534617084.post-13055566082287665392014-05-15T07:07:24.194-04:002014-05-15T07:07:24.194-04:00Oh and I really liked Since You've Been Gone t...Oh and I really liked Since You've Been Gone though it lacks the emotional punch of Second Chance Summer.

I am not a fan of "mean girls" or "frustrating characters". I am glad you liked this book even with its flaws. That gives me some hope that maybe I will too.
