Skye, Charlie, and Allie are back, this time extremely boy crazy.
Nothing can be worse than having to attend dance boot camp - and with Triple, of all people, as the instructor. That is until Skye discovers that Shira's son, Sydney, has a major crush on her. Doesn't help that his style is anything but alpha boyfriend material, so what's a girl to do when her mind is set on the guy's brother, Taz? One thing is for sure, Skye need More...

The second-to-last book in the "Alphas" series, "Belle of the Brawl" by Lisi Harrison, is just as fabulous, unique, and over-the-top as the first two books. In this novel, even more girls are getting elimaneted as the (about) 78 remaining Alphas-to-be claw to be the best of the best. Skye Hamilton is devastated when her dance instructer, Mimi, tells Skye's top riva, Triple Threat, to coach Skye for an entire week, which to both of them, feels like an eternity. The worst part? Mimi has demanded More...

I love this book, it's so addicting! The best Alphas book yet! II'll summarize without giving anything away:
Charlie: She is having trouble deciding between friends or boyfriends. Allie or Darwin? But is it possible that she can have both?
Allie: After her Darwin breakup she is having a hard time getting over him. But can she find a new Brazille brother to help get over her heartbreak?
Skye: She finally finds a way to get Syd off her back! So she can finally go back to Taz, but does Taz still want More...

Welcome to Alphas Academy. Where the nice boy who treats you right "isn't the one", where boys are more important than one's future, and where boys are simple toys.
This book pissed me off because all the girls are idiots except for Triple. They need to understand that boys are not the most important things in the world. And - ough, they're just stupid. This series is definitely Lisi's worse. But that ending with Darwin and Charlie warmed me all over and brought the book from one to three stars. More...

The book "Belle of the Brawl" by Lisi Harrison is just as the other books in the series. Girls are leaving faster than you can say "Alpha." They are leaving for many reasons. Some are not being qualified to becoming an alpha and boys are getting in the way of their studies. Allie is still being hated by most people. On top of that, Darwin Brazille, one of the sons of Shira Brazille, has broken up with her. Darwin gets back together with Charlie. But, Charlie feels bad for Allie. She set More...

i loved this book the tight ends of charlies questions fight to find the right answer but trying to push most of her feeling back for darwin is much tougher than it seems knowing that she finnaly has a friend for the first time ever! unless you count darwin and his brothers. skye is traped in triple boot camp teaching her to be a better dancer! read the book to see the fun, the callenges, romance, and (gasp) triples good side! and more! dont read the back read the book!

Billionaire Shira Brazille founded the super-exclusive Alpha Academy to nurture the next generation of exceptional dancers, writers, musicians, and inventors. It's a dream come true for one hundred lucky girls, but those not measuring up will be sent home at any time, for any reason. The one left standing will win worldwide fame. Who will it be?

From Skye the beautiful talented dancer, Charlie the inventer, and Ally the imposter; Alpha Academy is filled with talented girls. I liked this book because Ally finally let go of her secret. She had been keeping that in way too long. And for like the first time Skye is trying to get a boy to dump HER.
A great 3rd book for the series.
If at first you don't success, you're not an Alpha.

For starters, I want to thank God for letting me finish this book. I will admit that I didn't like Skye in the Clique (Lisi's other series) but in this series, I love her. It's weird because in the clique, I liked everybody, and now in this series, I don't like everyone. I only like four characters: Charlie, Skye, Darwin and Mel. Overall, this book was great. I find myself realizing that Lisi uses so many metaphors. She compares things that are going on in the character's lives to real life thin More...

This is the 3rd book in the Alpha series.Shira Brazille runs an Alpha Academy for girls who want to be the next generation of dancers, musicians, inventors, writers, etc. Not only they have to become their dream, but they have to be on top. Anyone can go home with one mistake. The themes that are in this book are honesty, love, friendship, and drama. it was okay. I wonder how Lisi Harrison will end it, in the last book of this series.

In terms of structure and writing, I loved it! Lisi Harrison has a way of making her writing addicting to read. It's just so witty, clever and most of the time totally and completely brilliant!
But in terms of plot and the story line, I semi-loved it. Don't get me wrong, it was great, but I just wish that Lisi put more 'depth' into this book. But since this is a Lisi Harrison book, this is about as deep as you'll ever get. Despite the somewhat ''shallow-ness'' of the book, I still got lessons out More...

I'm embarrassed to even admit to reading this. Amusing and entertaining, but total crap.
On a side note, pretty much all my YA series are coming to an end, which means I'm going to have to find something else to read. I guess "Gossip Girl" is out and "Twilight" is in...

This did not even come close to the previous books. It seems kinda tacky, whereas the other two were so refreshing and original. This book also had a whiny and angst-y thing about it. Wouldn't really recommend... But I still love the two previous ones!

I still secretly like chick lit books and this is no exception. Sure it had lots of flaws but I was quick to dismiss it. Only things I didn't like were all the pointless drama and how they talked (like serious-leh, NO teenage girl talks like that).
Sep 27, 2012
This was a fun read for people who either a) are a fan of Lisi Harrison, b) are a fan of The Clique, or c) read the previous books in the series. It was a great conclusion to the Alphas series, and a very quick read.

A great book. Lisi's easy writing style is easy and flowing and makes for not only a great story, but also a quick, fun read. This book left me waiting eagerly for the 4th and final book in this series.

This was a good book, but it took me about 2 days to finish reading this book. I would want this book to be a bit longer. But other that that it's great and makes excellent reading material.

Petty and girly chick lit, I know. But still a fun, fast, easy read for long road trips. It was fun to watch the drama unfold, and the concept of the story is quite interesting.

Ooh shocker! Everybody got what they wanted! You know, I liked the writing this time and was on the edge of my seat, but I wished it had been more unpredictable.

WHAT? I felt like this series was slowly going no where and now, all of the sudden, there is only one more. hmm... i'll be interested to see how she wraps this up.

It was actually pretty good!(:
Kept me entertained, and that's the main purpose.
If I could, I would rate it 4.5 stars out of 5, but since we can't do half, 5 will do. ;D

The story line is so enjoyable and fun! :) The writing was not spectacular, but perfect for the Tween genre. A book I will enjoy reading over on rainy days!

As always, I enjoyed this Lisi Harrison book and am really glad my friends got me hooked on her books four years ago. I can't stop rereading them!

Charlie is now starting to become Alpha and so is Aliie. They have overcome. Skye is very good and now she's comitting to dance. I hate Andrea(triple) for back stabbing Skye telling on her for Mimi on the muse cruise. Thank gosh that Charlie is finally back with Darwin and Allie and Mel are dating. Perfect couples. Only 30/100 girls left on Shiras super exclusive island on Alpha Acade,y. All teachers and including Shira are out on a mission and the pre-alphas have everyhting to themselves... i c More...
