Magnolia by Kristi Cook

Oh that was a cute book. Pretty much the opposite of a Romeo and Juliet story which made it all the better and we don’t have a helpless female which is all the better. So if you’re curious one word to sum up this book would be kawaii; short, simple, and sugary sweet.
Southern belle Jemma Cafferty has her entire life mapped out from the guy she’s suppose to marry to the college she will go to. But defiance is in her blood and she will do anything to go against her mom’s and Mrs. Marsden’s planning including hating the boy she’s suppose to fall in love with and applying to a school she actually wants to go to. The real question is how long can she rebel and hate the guy she’s secretly in love with. As a cheerleader with perfect aim with her gun Delilah she will have to decide how far she is willing to go to be against her parents.
In very few books we receive a character who is willing to admit they were wrong but finally some author decided it was time to stop that. Thank you Kristi Cook for that. This is also the book where extreme stereotypes are broken; the cheerleader is an awesome skeet shooter (something I’ve never seen a female character be good at) and the jock is actually kind and considerate and extreme genius but still has phobias. This book is a gem.

Overall? 4.5 out of 5 stars. Really cute but lacked the wow factor but none the less it is still an amazing book and you should pick it up.
