And speaking of Maria, she's asked to star in the school play, "Courting Priscilla", alongside Jessica Wakefield and Tia Ramirez. However, Maria's stardom is starting to go to her head, and her two new friends may not have enough patience to put up with it, not that I blame them.
There is some added excitement in this eighth book. It looks like Jessica has a secret admirer who's been giving her expensive gifts and poetry--and it's not her boyfriend, Jeremy Aames. (Hint: The mystery man has been interested in Jessica before. But watch out for the red herring.)
Another notable mention: Angel Desmond, Tia's longtime older boyfriend, makes his "main character" debut in "Maria Who?". He's recently taken a second job as a bartender at the local hangout (the Riot) to Tia Ramirez's dismay, because not only does it keep him from her, but Angel's boss is extremely strict and won't allow him to converse with any of his friends while he's working. Besides his hectic schedule, the biggest problem I saw was Tia's unnecessary pressure on Angel. I mean, why does she expect him to pay for everything? Why doesn't she get a part-time job and help out with their dates, especially with their big anniversary coming up?
Aside from that, "Maria Who?" was pretty good, although it didn't really spotlight the "Nina issue" like the synopsis on the back cover described.
Changing the subject: If you like SVH: Senior Year books, then there's another teen romance series you might want to check out: Love Stories. I haven't read any of them yet, but I've heard they're pretty good.

I was surprised!
I think the plot and overall 'feel' now has greatly changed, because now I felt more for Gaia in this book. I think it's due in part that her and Ed are back together. But now that Sam....
Read this book for yourself, and you be the judge.
Why did Pascal have to bring Sam back? Yes I know it should make for an interesting twist. But for God's sake Ed and Gaia's relationship was just starting to blossom and grow. And now we have Sam thrown into the mix.
Natasha and Tatiana are acting suspicious. God please don't let them be bad guys because we all know how stupid and tiring that would be.
The idea of something happening between Sam and Gaia (although we know it'll probably happen) makes my skin itch. I hope things will not end up getting even messier and make me long for the series to finally end. Despite my mixed feelings over Lost I can't wait to read Escape(Fearless # 26) to see what the future shall bring us.
The FEARLESS books always have a new topic, or little thing added in every book, that's what keeps me reading. It's always fun reading these books, because when you start to read, you feel like you're there, with Gaia. She is so easy to become, while reading, but before you can become her you have to know the situation and understand it. I recommend this book to all the girls out there, that like adventure stories. These are great books.
