Review of Better Than Revenge By Kasie West

 


Synopsis:

A swoony new romance from the author of Sunkissed! When her football-player boyfriend and now ex lands the podcast job she’s been dreaming of, a girl takes matters into her own hands by enlisting the help of his nemesis to get revenge.

Seventeen-year-old Finley has only ever had one to become a famous podcaster. This includes coming up with the perfect pitch to land her on her school's podcast team. But when her football-obsessed boyfriend, Jensen, decides to also try out—and uses her idea—she's left confused and betrayed. 

Determined to get back at him, Finley and her friends try to find the perfect revenge scheme, but quickly discover that Jensen is almost-impossible to best. Keyword, almost

By chance, Finley discovers a knack for kicking and decides to take Jensen's spot on the football team. To help her train, she recruits Jensen's cute but conceited nemeses, Theo. Soon the two discover that their connection runs deeper than football. But Finley can't let herself get distracted, and Theo has secrets of his own. Is true love really better than the perfect revenge?

My Review:

First I have to say that this is the first book I have read by Kasie West and it will not be the last. I absolutely loved this book. It was so fun to read and I couldn't put it down. The chemistry between the main characters was amazing. Plus the friendships they had was a plus to the story.

Finley is into podcasting and she has her own that she posts every week. Finley's dream is to be accepted into the senior year podcasts at school and be the lead podcaster. She goes to the tryouts when she realizes her boyfriend Jensen is going to audition for the lead caster spot as well. That throws Finley for a loop and she is angry at him because why would he do that to her knowing she has waited three long years to audition for the caster part.

Then the parts are posted and Jensen gets the lead part while Finley gets the research part. Jensen gets the lead part and Finley is upset and angry at him and breaks up with him. Then she tells her friends and they come up with this amazing revenge list and Finley picks one that she knows will get Jensen angry.

As the revenge plan goes into action Finley is getting happy knowing that her plan will work. But something unexpected happens that has Finley thinking about more than revenge.
