You can read all of my reviews at Alluring Reads.Where can I start here? Belles was just so good that I can't even gather my thoughts cohesively. It was a flashback to some of my all time favourite shows, it had a hint of The OC with a whole lot of 90210. I could not put this book down, and as soo...

For the rest of you, I am going to try to explain why I didn't feel the need to finish this.Alright, I feel like this can be pretty brief, a...
