It's confirmed: I am hooked. The first two books, I had lots of pauses in between reading but this one was a breeze to get through. I'm a lot more familiar with the characters now, and I'm as invested as if I'm watching a soap opera on TV. 

The love triangles, the relationship and friendship dramas, the family problems, school, work, everything. There are so many things going on and I am not bored one second. 

I actually love how different the twins are in this series. Jessica isn't wild and snooty and obnoxious anymore. She feels more down to earth and like a real person now. Elizabeth isn't boring, predictable, Mary Sue. She's breaking rules left and right, and she's finally having a real life. Good for her.

I don't really care much for Will and Melissa, I think they're kind of the most awful couple in the series but the ending has me gripped. I need to read the next book immediately!
