I couldn't give this book any stars because it was almost physically painful to read and I only finished it to finish it. You pretty much have to have the previous book to understand all the relationships/friendships between the characters, which is a bad sign.

I still finished the book but gave it three stars because I think it could have been a little bit more of a stand alone book.

First "trashy" novel I've read in years. But, it was fun. For the genre it was good, but I just can't bring myself to give books like these more than three stars.
