This novella introduces you to some really interesting characters who barely pop up in the other stories. This is where I, after finishing the series, get a bit annoyed. There are some cute interactions before they’re in the water and some tension outside of it as their clothes get tossed into a tree.Īfter the skinny dipping scene we get more of the party, get more info on the other characters. The game lasts only one round leading to the characters skinny dipping.
The title gives you the basic premise as our two romantic leads play a game of truth or dare. Even though Mackenzie and Sean are not major players in the next four novellas their pranks get mentioned or witnessed, which I enjoyed. Sean and Mackenzie have this epic ongoing prank war going on since middle school and the novella tells you about a great deal of these pranks. When the girls show up at the party they immediately encounter Mackenzie’s “arch nemesis” Sean, who is your typical hot and popular guy who is uber cocky and a full up ladies man and has been since middle school. This story is about a girl (Mackenzie) whose friend just got cheated on and now they are out for revenge – said revenge involves destroying her ex-boyfriend’s room. I kind of wanted that to be true but as I read more in the series I was so happy my theory was wrong. Each chapter is a slightly different location at the party, so as I read and saw the hints to other characters who could be the protagonists for the rest of the series, I thought the whole series will be small vignettes of what else happened at this party. This novella primarily happens during a party. I can’t say these novellas are the best books I’ve read this year – certainly not the worst – but they have inspired me to get back to my own personal writing which is a plus. These novellas are simple YA Romance romps that hit all the cliches, but that’s what I was wanting, nice simple sweet fluff and a quick read. Preamble for this review: “Truth or Dare” is Madeleine Labitan’s first published novella and each subsequent story improves. So I went looking on my Kindle for something simple and sweet and Kindle Unlimited recommended me the first novella in Madeleine Labitan’s Bayfield High series “Truth or Dare.” I’ve only used it as a speaker for my Audible and Spotify – and sometimes as an alarm – so this discovery blew my mind. I recently discovered that my Amazon Echo can read my Kindle novellas.
