Goodreads Summary

If the cover doesn't catch the reader's eye, the plot will.  The best part of this novel were the incredibly likable characters.  Callie is a fun, sassy character.  She marches to the beat of her own drum.  I love strong female characters and she fit the bill.  Lola, her sister, is just as sarcastic and tough-the reader will take an instant liking to her as well.  There is also an Aussie in this book!  I thought the author nailed the accent, I enjoyed reading about a foreigner as well.

The events in this book were fairly exciting, the Goodreads summary details the plot very nicely.  The reader shouldn't be bored.  The ending was interesting, this book was full of slight twists...tricked me a few times.  This book is recommended to teen/young adult readers.
