My Review

5 of 5 Chase and Lacey

******* PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE ARE SOME SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW FROM THE FIRST BOOK BECOMING A BUTTERFLY. PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION! *******

Butterfly Kisses is the most amazing sequel I have read. I get scared sometimes that I won't like a sequel as much as I liked the first book but dare I say it I LOVE MIA!!!!!!!!! What she has written in the sequel will knock your socks right off your feet. In Becoming a Butterfly we meet Lacey, Chase, Lana, Tomas, Byron, and Henry. This group of teens is going through a lot for the age of 16 but things in life are always complicated. Lacey has deceived Henry and embarrassed him by acting like she was another girl just so he would pay attention to her. Chase is still dealing with his move from another town and struggling with his feelings for Lacey. Lana is being bullied by her ex best friend and her ex boyfriend.Tomas has just moved from another city and knows no one until he meets the mysterious Lana. Byron hates Lacey for some reason and he and his sister bully her everyday.

What this group does not realize is that sometimes you have crawl before you walk and life will throw you things that are very unexpected and when it does you will find friendship in the unlikeliest places. The summer is over and everyone is reeling from something that happened to them that they did not expect. Lacey and Chase are closer than ever but Lacey will have to make a choice on whether or not she will be with Chase or continue her crazy pursuit of Henry who has made it clear that he hates her and never ever wants to see her or talk to her again. She made a fool of him and his feelings and he did not take that very well. 

Lana has found Tomas and the two of them are closer than ever. They talk about everything and share time together just getting to know one another. Tomas understands Lana but when Tomas brings her home to meet the parents his father is against the relationship and forbids it. As the story goes on you find out why the father is against it but Tomas will make his own decisions and what he does will shock you and make you so proud of him.

Byron and Henry are still best friends but this summer really took it's toll out on everyone. Once the cat was out of the bag that Henry was really dating Lacey instead of Farrah his life has been one big jumbled mess. Henry keeps going from girl to girl and breaking hearts because his heart was broken. Byron is always there to pick up the pieces and take care of Henry. What are best friends for right? Well these two will have a rocky patch in Butterfly Kisses and what happens will totally shock you and having say HOLY HADES I never saw that coming!

Butterfly Kisses has so many twists and turns it will have you on the edge of seat screaming for more. When it ended and yes it ended with a cliff hanger Mia is so lucky I love her because I was ready to throw my computer out the window! You will see who Lacey decides she wants to be with. You will see what happens to Lana and who keeps bullying her and why. You will find out more about Tomas and who he has feelings for. You will find out that one of the characters is gay and who he has feelings for. And last but not least one of the characters will get hurt and stay in a coma for a while and when they wake up they will not recognize anyone not even the person they used to love. Mia please write Butterfly Migration FAST like PRONTO because I need it along with my box of tissues!
This is a story about a girl, named Mia. She grew up in suburb of medium sized city. There were cold winters, and hot sticky summers. Mia’s favorite seasons were spring and fall. She enjoyed the mild seasons, but also loved the vibrant colors each possessed. 
Mia loved music. She didn’t just love it, she sat on the floor in front of her Casio stereo for hours at a time, recording songs off the radio. Then she would cue them up and make sure she only got the music as she recorded them on a second tape, without the DJ’s voices on them, just the music. Then she would listen to those songs absorbing the words as she sat in her room and wrote her poetry. 

She wrote her first Poem when she was thirteen. It was called Sands of Time. When she was sixteen and again when she was eighteen she won two state competitions for her poetry. Her Poetry was stories of roses, starry nights, love, loss, and the scars left behind. She found recourse in those private moments filling notebooks of her writings. As she grew so did her inspirations, and when ever it hit her the rest of the world melted away until her verses were written, alive in the world. 

Even today as Mia writes mostly YA fiction, poetry still holds a special place in her heart. Her love for all things words propels her forward in her pursuit of the next great story. Her Debut Novel The Ocean will be released this spring.

  1. Butterfly Kisses is based on a lesbian pedophile
    website of 2005 that had erotic stories for adult
    females who desired intimacy with girls under the
    age of 18. It was never prosecuted by law and
    order agencies because male paedophelia is the
    major focus of the courts in North America today.

  3. Society is blind to the fact of the female pedophile culture that exists in the United
    States of America today. Virtually no complaints
    are registered against female sex offenders since
    it would blow the lid off the stereotype that only
    men are sexual predators against children. Why the
    double standard in our society? Wake up People!!!

  5. Thanks for listening to me. I am a whistleblower
    just like Edward Snowden, but I am not hiding in
    Russia. I live in Canada and am concerned about the double standard that allows a Meg Tilly to easily
    publish child pornography stories, but forbids
    a male writer like myself to do likewise. I did
    10 months in prison for distributing written child
    pornography. Meg Tilly got a California book award!!!
