![]() Not in this story.Ariana is the main character torn between her rich, handsome boyfriend Daniel and the rich, handsome bad boy Thomas. The appeal to the reader is strong and you actually find yourself rooting for the shy girl to break out of her shell and go for the guy that is totally wrong for her, so she can redeem him and make him totally right. Leaving her boyfriend would have serious social consequences, not to mention the bad boy is a notorious bad boy. She begins to rebel a bit and have feelings for the hot 'bad boy' at the private school and becomes torn for who she wants to be with. For me, I am left with a stricken look on my face and no interest in the actual series.The book starts out with the typical girl who has issues in her private life, sticks to the rules in her daily life, and has a great boyfriend. I'm guessing, based on other reviews of this book which were mostly glowing, you need to have some emotional involvement into the The Private series in order for Last Christmas to work for you. It is the prequel to a bestselling series that I have not read, so I thought what better way to start a series than with the prequel? Yeah, don't do that. The is one the darkest and most psychotic young adults books I've ever read. A nice, love triangle with a bit of suspense, and how two young people find each other. I bought this book wanting a Christmas theme and some young adult love intrigue. ![]()
