The Art of Being Friends

Average rating4
Being the new girl is always hard, especially when you're socially awkward. But when my family decides to move to Honeyton at the beginning of my senior year, I try to look at it as a chance to start over. And it kind of looks like I might succeed. Not only do I make a new friend, but I also meet Hunter Hathingford. Hunter is gorgeous, charming, and sweet. And while I'm definitely attracted to him, we both decide it's a good idea for us to just be friends. But not everything in this new town is what it seems. Everyone has secrets. Including Hunter. Hunter: I'm known as the biggest flirt in school, which is fine, even if it's not entirely true. Sometimes I wish I could be myself and that I didn't have to be Hunter Hathingford, son of the most wealthy and corrupt man in Honeyton. But since everyone in this town knows who I am, that doesn't seem very realistic. That is until a new girl moves to town. Raven Wilowwynter is sweet, beautiful, and probably one of the most amusing girls I've ever met. And even though I can't stop thinking about kissing her, we make a deal to just be friends. But I'm worried how long that'll last when she finds out the truth about who I really am. A sweet YA/teen high school mystery romance series.

I read this in two days, but I easily could've finished it in one. It was a book that instantly drew me in and then left me hanging with a you've-got-to-be-joking-the-next-book-better-be-available expression on my face.
Ravenlee Wilowwynter is that girl that I would immediately befriend and reach out to because I know she needs a friend who would love her unconditionally. I loved her sarcasm and dry humor. I absolutely love her name and the way Hunter described it's meaning. My heart went out to Raven because of everything she went through (and we don't even know everything yet) and everything she has to go through. Her uncle is... a jerk. I'd say a lot worse but I'm not supposed to curse so... but he's a real horrific jerk. Her aunt is... annoying. I'd probably react the same way Raven did to her. Dixie May, Raven's cousin, is a real spoiled brat. I immediately disliked her, like within two sentences of Raven talking about her.
Hunter Hathingford and his friends Jax and Zay (talk about those names! Genius Jessica, I love ‘em) are the type of boys I'd want to know and help. Their families... sounds real... again, no cursing but seriously anyone who's read this book probably knows what I want to say about the families in this book. They really suck. The kids go through so much... crap. The way Raven's uncle treated her, he literally cut her! He cut words into her skin! What kind of a sick psycho is this “sheriff”? He's such a... jerk (you know what I really, really, really want to say).
I am really curious to see what this series will hold for me and I can't wait to get my hands on the next book, and the next, and the next, and... all of them, I want all of them.
