CHAIN REACTION (a Prequel to HAUNTING JOY)
When a "reveal your secret crush" chain letter goes awry, Joy gets caught in the middle.
My Thoughts
Take a Picture was a cute short story! I liked how Ashlyn was really normal and nice despite being famous and Troy was a good character too though his reactions to things annoyed me occasionally. The premise of the story was rather cool and it was pretty well executed! If you are looking for a sweet and quick read I would recommend this!
Chain Reaction was a fun little prequel to Haunting Joy! It was cool to see Joy notice Nick for the first time and their few interactions were sweet knowing what happens in Haunting Joy! I also really liked how Dave wasn't the normal arrogant high-school boy and was actually sweet to Joy!
