2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Fans of Undead Girl Gang and The Babysitters Coven will love Breakup from Hell, a witty YA rom-com with a supernatural twist, starring horror novel obsessed Mica Angeles, who discovers the guy she fell for comes straight out of one of her beloved books. Miguela Angeles is tired. Tired of her abuela keeping secrets, especially about her heritage. Tired of her small Vermont town and hanging out at the same places with the same friends she’s known forever. So when another boring Sunday trip to church turns into a run-in with Sam, a mysterious hottie in town on vacation, Mica seizes the opportunity to get closer to him. It’s not long before she is under Sam’s spell and doing things she’s never done before, like winning all her martial arts sparring matches—and lying to her favorite people. The more time Mica spends with Sam, the more weird things start to happen, too. Like terrifying-visions-of-the-world-ending weird. Mica’s gut instincts keep telling her something is off, yet Sam is the most exciting guy she’s ever met. But when Mica discovers his family’s roots, she realizes that instead of being in the typical high school relationship, she’s living in a horror novel. She has to leave Sam, but will ending their relationship also bring an end to everything she knows and everyone she loves? Clever, hilarious, and steeped in supernatural suspense, Breakup from Hell will keep you hooked until the last page.

2.5 â­ The best way to describe this book is as a made for TV Nickelodeon special. In it, we have Mica who wants to get out of her small town and experience new things. Her abuela is incredibly strict and doesn‘t let her date. She meets a handsome and dreamy guy, and they connect over a shared love of horror novels. She so amazed she sneaks out of the house to be with him. However, it turns out this guy is the prince of Hell - the son of Satan.

LibrarianRyan This is insinuated throughout the book, but it‘s not known for sure until 3/4 of the way through. The book is mostly Mica and her friends trying to figure out what is going on, who is sneaking around and going doing odd things, and what all do their parent‘s know. . It‘s almost like the friends are a new Scooby gang. Most of the book is about the friends so the relationship and the breakup is very lackluster. This book wasn‘t bad, and it leaves 1mo
LibrarianRyan room for there to be a sequel. However, I would not take time to read a sequel. I listen to this book as an AI voice, but I‘m not sure a real-life narrator would make it that much better. The writing style is on the fluffy side. And while there is nothing wrong with that, this is your yogurt snack not your meat and potatoes. 1mo
