review 1: Although this book was mostly with dialogues, but it was still hard to read. It started with this two cute couples named Beau and T, Mitch and Bliss. Those couples are way different, Beau is football player and T is a smart girl, while Mitch is a chess player and Bliss is a cheerleader. Over the summer, those girls made a deal with Annie who has huge hatre torward guys, because she broke up with one she loved most. The deal was that T and Bliss is suppost to pretend they are going away and making a new account to attract Mitch and Beau to see will they fall for the trick of falling in love with two different and foreign girls over their beloved girlfriends. Their plan worked perfectly fine, the only small flaw was when mitch had a little question about them being so awkwar... mored. They were just chatting for over 3 to 4 weeks until Mitch and Beau both rejected the foreign girls and their reasons was because they loved their girlfriends, as known as Bliss and T too much. It was a happy ending where those boys keeps their girlfriends and where annie learned a valuable lesson on learning to respect boys more. I thought this book itself was quite interesting, especially the way it was written in, since the story mostly takes place in a chatroom their words were all in chatmode. I thought it was an easy book to read because i understanded most of the content, but it did took me a while to read since it was so long. I also thought that love shouldn't have a doubt to, because different people treats the love or the love ones differently. Some people over love them and some just doesn't care and use those that loves them. I thought i can relate to T, because i'm a do most of my work and complete them like her, but i will never follow such a ridiculous bet with my friend if there was one, because i know the limit of a bet. This was just too over for a bet. I would recommand this book to high schoolers, because it taught me a lot about trust and friendship and how we should treasure it as much as we can before we break that bond and end up hurting everyone around us and ourselves. Overall this was a great book to read due to the interesting contents of the way this author portraits the characters through a chat.
review 2: (my YA Galley pre-published review)The most compelling aspect was the looming question of if, or when, the boys would find out who the foreign exchange students in the chat room were. There was also the extra little story line of what happened to Annie in her past relationship and what was going to happen in the future between her and Johnson.I was not disappointed with this book to a great extent, except for the ending, because the characters all resolve their conflicts with each other without having learned anything, just by saying sorry. It does not ever point out that maybe the guys were not the only one at fault; perhaps the girls were cruel to set up such a trap. The end could have easily been further develop to make a point about the reality of online relationships versus face-to-face relationships. In addition, I felt that the story about the horrible relationship Annie had with her old boyfriend could have been revealed slower and containing more details. If little details had come up through the conversation one by one, it would have made it like a mini mystery for the reader to find out, adding more suspense. less
