Fake Boyfriend by Kate Brian
4.0
The twist somewhere around the end was really unexpected since Vivi never thought that Izzy could fool her. But apparently she could.
I got really annoyed with how Izzy would keep going back to Sluttig even though she knows that he's no good for her. She believes that there's good in all people and you can't blame her for that, but what you CAN blame her for is constantly giving Shawn an infinite number of chances. You would think that for someone who was as smart as was depicted in the book, she'd have little more backbone and actually kick him to the curb, but instead she cradles and cuddles him like he's some little child that needs to be saved.
Honestly, who would go back to their cheating boyfriend when they've already caught the guy in the act?
The relationship of Lane and Curtis was fun to read. It was easy to relate to that certain element in the story because it was something that happened to nearly all of us. I nearly jumped up in happiness when I read that Curtis felt the same for Lane and that he was waiting to ask her to prom.
Vivi and Jonathan are hilarious to read about because you don't expect a pushy girl like Vivi to get into a relationship with someone as clean cut as Jonathan. She even said herself at first that he wasn't her type because he was too "goody-goody".
The ending was something to be expected. Everyone ended up with who they like and they all live happily ever after. It's definitely a story you want to read when you're "comfort reading" because it's a book that really makes you feel good once you've finished it.
