The Naughty List Author: Suzanne Young ISBN: 9781595142788
The Naughty List by Suzanne Young tells the story of Tessa Crimson, head cheerleader by day, spy by night. Two years before, the head cheerleader was cheated on by her boyfriend, so the cheerleaders created a group called the Society of Smitten Kittens (SOS). Their mission is to investigate boyfriends whose girlfriends are suspicious of them to find out if they’ve been cheating.
Tessa is glad to help out fellow girlfriends, but her night job is taking a toll on her own love life. Her perfect boyfriend Aiden is starting to wonder where Tessa disappears to each night.
When a pair of siblings, Christian and Chloe move into town, Tessa and Aiden’s relationship gets a bit shaky. Chloe is determined to get Aiden to like her and Tessa keeps running into Christian everywhere she goes. Tessa doesn’t know how long she can continue to lead the SOS with all of the problems in her own personal life.
I loved the idea of this book. I thought it sounded really cool and I was excited to find out how the SOS catch cheaters in the act. I enjoyed getting to know the characters, but there were two things that REALLY threw me off about the book.
First, Tessa freaks out whenever anybody curses. Let’s be real. These kids are seniors in high school; they curse. Plus, throughout the book, Young tackles other touchy topics, most notably, sex. If Tessa and Aiden are openly having sex throughout the book, I thought it seemed a little immature that Tessa would care so much about the cursing. It just didn’t seem realistic to me at all.
The second thing that bothered me was the awkward phrases that Tessa used throughout the story. Instead of cursing, Tessa would say, “apple dippers!” She referred to her relationship with Aiden as, “strawberry smoothie.” These random phrases appeared in almost every page and threw me off every single time. Again, this made Tessa’s character seem immature, when she clearly wasn’t since she was engaging in sex and spying on cheating boyfriends.
Other reviews I read loved Tessa. As a character, she sort of annoyed me. The two quirks I mentioned above played a huge role in me disliking her, but her perkiness just didn’t seem realistic for a high schooler.
Overall, I enjoyed the premise of the story and I plan on reading the sequel which comes out on June 10.
3/5
Thanks for such a good review. I don't think I've even heard of this book before. You make some very good points. Those little quirks can really be annoying in characters.
Um, "apple dippers"? Yeah, someone who would use a phrase like that in lieu of yelling "damn!" while simultaneously getting it on with her boyfriend would really annoy me! Not sure I could stomach this one on that alone!
