Novel of the Century

Three strikes, they're on the outs.... ONE: Heather pretending to date Jacob, just to mess with Sasha. TWO: A new girl who is so competitive, she makes Heather look tame. THREE: A former BFF with a new hobby: stealing boyfriends. I thought this book was the most intense so far. Jasmine is most definitely my least favorite character, she is slithery like a snake. Sasha and Eric are my favorite characters. They are so cool and kind. It is like reading a life story.

Triple Fault

I ordered this without realizing it is part of a series of books. I simply saw that it was a teenage horsey book, and having a teenage horsey daughter, I thought it would be ideal. However, despite not having read the first three books in the series, my daughter was able to pick this book up and quickly learn enough about the characters to understand what was going on. I think she wouldn't mind going back and reading the first books, to get a full understanding of the characters, since the author clearly did not want to repeat too much of the earlier books by spending a lot of time describing the backgrounds of these characters in the fourth book. In TRIPLE FAULT, Sasha isn't speaking to Callie and Jacob, hurt by an event that happened in a previous book. She wants to be his Eric's girlfriend, but feels that their relationship must be kept a secret to make sure nothing happens to ruin it. Jasmine - with whom there is apparently some history - has transferred to Canterwood with an "I'm so innocent" act that fools everyone. In TRIPLE FAULT, the storyline reads smoothly. The characters are well enough developed. It's hard to like Jasmine but there is something about her that evokes a small amount of sympathy. Sasha is far from perfect but she is extremely likeable. And Eric and Sasha have a solid friendship - an important message to convey to teens. CANTERWOOD CREST seems to be a great series for horse crazy teenage girls. It is not necessarily wholesome; nor is there a moral to the story. The characters have their good and bad moments. Overall though, it is worth the time.
