Review: Rivals

The Rivals by Daisy Whitney

Hardcover, 352 pages

Expected publication: February 6th 2012

by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers

Daisy Whitney is a maverick in writing. Mockingbirds was the first book in this series and it really set the stage for it's debut. The cast if characters was so realistic and dramatic that as the story unfolded we cries and cheered on it's cast.
Now with the upcoming release of Rivals we are brought back into the sphere of influence of the Themis Academy where old enemies wait, and suspicious is rampant in the halls.
The new case up for the Mockingbirds will not only implicate friends but it will spread throughout the classes.
What is in store for Alex's love life, there is a triangle brewing.
Rivals will not only come from old enemies, classmates, but also from the heart.
Whitney's characters are returning from summer and returning to new challenges. For Alex, Juilliard is calling, but also the music of starting a real singing group when the Dean casts suspicions on the club.
Rivals weaves a fantastic story that will question charters truth and loyalty, while they rise to their challenges.

It was a fantastic read and a fabulous sequel.
