Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles


Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles

Rating: 4 stars
Genre:  Young Adult, Contemporary Romance
Recommended for: Fans of contemporary young adult with a rebel hero 

Well, this was a very fast and enjoyable read. I admit, I expected Carlos to be an even bigger jerk than he actually turned out to be based on some reviews I'd read and that was a huge relief.

However, this didn't have the intensity or the extreme chemistry between the heroes that Perfect Chemistry did. It was basically two high school kids fooling around and I couldn't take them too seriously because of this. I also disliked the fact that this book was focused on their relationship alone, unlike PC where we get to see each of the protagonists' life outside school and their daily problems/chores and thus was able to get a better picture of their character & personality. This seemed flat in comparison. Still, as I said, I had a jolly good time reading it. I want to read more by Simone Elkeles, she knows how to write:)
