review 1: I had such high hopes for the last book of this series after I'm So Sure. I was hoping for some romance, Bella gaining a bit of common sense, and resolution of other small plot-lines. Instead, I got the mess that is So Over My Head. Instead of the easy romance I was looking forward to, Bella and Luke spent the majority of the book broken up and fighting over the appearance of Luke's ex-girlfriend and Bella's trust issues. I understand some of the drama was necessary, but I just wanted some resolution in that part of the story arc. Of course, there was your typical crime to be solved, but I thought this one to be very much over Bella's head. Hence the title of the book, I suppose. Still, what teenager with any common sense or just even a brain goes snooping into a murder in... morevestigation when everyone else in her life (her boyfriend, the police, etc.) are telling her to stay out of it? I guess this is why I could never get into Nancy Drew mysteries. On the upside, many of the plot lines are wrapped up nicely. I really enjoyed the twists that came with Bella's dad's wedding. The scene between Bella and her dad was beautifully down, and it is a major reason why this book got an extra star. God was also brought back into the story more, which I enjoyed. Everything was wrapped up with a nice pretty bow in the end, and I couldn't help but be happy about that. Still, this isn't a series I would recommend. It's just not enough payoff at the end of the day.
review 2: I loved it! I love this series!! I loved Bella!! She handled everything so well... Well maybe it she handled it a little like Romeo and Juliet but still she didn't die! The one thing I didn't like was Jenny's commentary in the back of the book. I found her annoying with the whole Christian thing. I want to read a book about Bella, not about her religion. The story had me in suspense the whole time. It was kinda a nice book to read right after read a pretty depressing book were everyone dies. I was just a good book which I thorough enjoyed! (but don't read the special notes in the back ;) less
