Review and Awesome Giveaway: The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers by Lynn Weingarten

Title: The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers
Author: Lynn Weingarten
Release Date: December 272o11
Publisher: HarperTeen
Source: Around the World ARC Tours


 Synopsis (via Goodreads): When her boyfriend breaks up with her on the first day of sophomore year, Lucy has no idea how she’s going to make it through homeroom, let alone the rest of her life. Enter three stunning girls with a magical offer Lucy can’t refuse. All she has to do is get a guy to fall in love with her in the next seven days, and then…break his heart and collect one of his brokenhearted tears. As the girls teach Lucy how to hook a guy (with the help of a little magic), she quickly discovers how far she is willing to go—and who she is willing to cross—to get what she wants. 
Fans of Lauren Myracle, Jodi Lynn Anderson, and Meg Cabot will love this tale of breakups, friendship, new crushes, and magic. Told with wit and charm, The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers is sure to be one of this winter’s most irresistible reads!

In a Sentence: The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers was a fun, lighter read with a unique magical aspect.
Review: I highly enjoyed this book. It's a fun read and I liked the magical element. This is the perfect winter read.

At first I honestly didn't really care for the protagonist, Lucy, but throughout the book she changes and by the end I liked Lucy more. It was fun and interesting to see Lucy change throughout the novel.
I really liked the writing overall. There were a few lines I found a bit cheesy but besides that the writing was very good. The concept of the SSH was very unique and a great addition to the novel.
Honestly, the last two sentences of the synopsis describe this book better than I can: "Fans of Lauren Myracle, Jodi Lynn Anderson, and Meg Cabot will love this tale of breakups, friendship, new crushes, and magic. Told with wit and charm, The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers is sure to be one of this winter’s most irresistible reads!"
I really hope that there will be a second book. I really enjoyed The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers and would love to be in Lucy's world again.
