Opis

In Marissa Meyer's young adult contemporary romance, a girl is suddenly gifted with the ability to cast instant karma on those around her – both good and bad. Chronic overachiever Prudence Daniels is always quick to cast judgment on the lazy, rude, and arrogant residents of her coastal town. Her dreams of karmic justice are fulfilled when, after a night out with her friends, she wakes up with the sudden ability to cast instant karma on those around her. Pru giddily makes use of the power, punishing everyone from public vandals to mean gossips, but there is one person on whom her powers consistently backfire: Quint Erickson, her slacker of a lab partner. Quint is annoyingly cute and impressively noble, especially when it comes to his work with the rescue center for local sea animals. When Pru resigns herself to working at the rescue center for extra credit, she begins to uncover truths about baby otters, environmental upheaval, and romantic crossed signals—not necessarily in that order. Her newfound karmic insights reveal how thin the line is between virtue and vanity, generosity and greed . . . love and hate... and fate.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! At first I thought that maybe it was going to be kind of corny with the whole idea of sudden instant karma but I was pleasantly surprised. And some might say that this book is a classic romance story that you can see coming but I again was pleasantly surprised and didn't see certain things coming. There were a lot of twists and turns, aspects coming back after many chapters in ways you probably wouldn't predict. I absolutely loved Meyer's character development and plot development. I could actually feel the emotions with the characters. For part of the book, I read this along with an audio book and the narration there was great too! I would definitely recommend!! So we start out the book hating Quint. And like Prudence, I REALLY didn't like him. But then after finding out all that Quint has done for the center and his hard work, I was so angry at Prudence. And she didn't even seem to care. I wasn't 100% sure but I am glad that the snorkeling adventure was a bit of a game changer for her. Maybe I am a bit naïve but I didn't see the romance coming in the way that it did. And I sure didn't see Shauna's big story coming either. What a plot twist! I love this idea of instant karma but I am glad that it didn't completely run the story. I loved all of the adventures at the center and how much the characters developed throughout the story. Kind of wish there would be a sequel where Quint and Prudence try to save the music store together :)
