Bitter End by Jennifer BrownMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I had high hopes for this book because I really enjoyed reading the author's other book The Hate List.
Bitter End is the story of Alex, a high school senior who is looking forward to a graduation trip to Colorado with her two best friends in search of answers about her mother who died when Alex was just a young girl. Life with Bethany and Zach is great and things seem to be getting better when Alex starts dating the new jock, Cole. But Cole has a dark side and Alex's friends warn her that he is no good. Can Alex get out before the relationship spirals out of control? Or his her love for him too strong?
This book addresses domestic violence as it relates to teens and does a good job of it. The story can drag but overall the book is a good read for any one who enjoys tragic high school love stories.
