Martha Waters final submission is her review of this Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan YA novel.
Unless I finish reading the 800-page-biography of Joseph Kennedy I'm currently engrossed in in the next 24 hours (unlikely), this will be my last book review for summer reading, so I'm glad I can go out on a positive note! Messy is the sequel to Spoiled, which I recently reviewed, and picks up a few months after Spoiled ended. It follows the adventures of Max McCormack (bff to Spoiled's heroine, Molly) as she becomes the ghost blogger for wannabe-starlet Brooke Berlin. Messy is just as clever and funny as the first book was, and the authors have a real gift for creating interesting minor characters. It's the perfect summer read - quick and fun and funny, and, most notably of all, it's never mean-spirited, despite the constant mocking of Hollywood. Teenage girls would love this - and so would a lot of adults.
