Access Greek: Best Frenemies Curated By Marsha Warner Formatted As Hardcover

wholly support the buying and reading of this book, Mostly because I wrote it, Just as witty and good as the show! They've fought over guys, sorority elections and who gets the last Cheeserito, Casey Cartwright thought that made her and her ZBZ little sis Rebecca Logan closer, But when Casey's ex, Evan, nominates Rebecca as the next Omega Chi fraternity Sweetheart and Rebecca hesitates, Casey vows to play hardball, ZBZ's status on campus depends on Rebecca winning that title, It's time for some sisterly guidance,

Meanwhile, Casey's brother Rusty wants to create a truly spectacular legacy for his fraternity, Kappa Tau, and KT prez Cappie is hoping to live up to Casey's expectations for their fragile new relationship.
The pressure is getting to everybody, When Casey goes overboard trying to advise Rebecca on how to win Sweetheart, things reach the breaking point, Will a surprise finish to the competition shake everything apart, or is it just the shock needed to bring best frenemies together

I love the fact that you can step right into these novels and feel like youre one of the gangespecially if youve ever seen the ABC Family show.
The characters personalities are right on, their actions and reactions just what youd expect, Sounds predictable Not really. more familiar in that “old friends” way,

All your favorites are back from Ashleigh, the current ZBZ house president through an interesting turn of events, to Casey, the perpetual dater of both Evan and Cappy who has finally set her sites on one goal, from Rusty, the boy genius who always tries his hardest even when the going is beyond tough, to Owen, the outofthecloset Omega Chi that will back friends until the end no matter what house they pledge a lesson learned from his pal Rusty.


Lets not forget Rebecca as she takes a fairly starring role in this book, whether she wants to or not, and manages to pull off an ending thatwell, perfectly suits her and surprises us all chalk it up to typical Rebecca Logan results.
Its just great to spend time with all those weve come to know and love from this group without any one of them truly stealing the spotlight.
Each one crops up from time to time to make an appearance and say hello, a great balance achieved gracefully by the author.


Recommended read for fans of the show, fans of the first GREEK novel, and those that simply love the Young Adult genre and are looking for a light fun read to chase your cares away for a bit.
The world of CRU fun and hijinx is callingare you in Happy reading, I've been in a restless reading mood and stumbled across this on Overdrive and it was just what I needed, It felt like the show and gave me my Casey/Cappie fix, When feisty, snarky Rebecca Logan is nominated for the honor of Omega Chi sweetheart, her ZBZ sorority sisters have their work cut out for them.
Rebecca has some seriously mixed feelings, but "Big Sis" Casey is determined to use a win to get ZBZ out of fourthish place in the Greek rankings, and to try to salvage her own legacy from the wasteland designation of a "gap year.
" Over at Omega Chi, Evan tries to manage the Sweetheart campaign while dealing with closeminded fraternity brothers stuck in the past, and over at Kappa Tau, Cappie and Rusty are looking to their own future legacies by building lifesize Rock 'Em, Sock 'Em robots for their house.


I had a lot of fun reading this book, Tiein novels can be a tricky read for me: I want characters to be different at the end of books than they are at the beginning, but I assume that, often, the authors of tiein novels are expected to leave the characters as they found them, to secure the toys safely back in the toy box when they're done.
That, and sometimes, the tone of a TV show or movie can't easily be translated into book form,

Luckily, Best Frenemies features excellent moments and shifts in characterization, all while fitting in nicely with canon end of season three.
It feels like an actual episode of the television show, The character voices are pitch perfect, especially Casey and Rusty, and Rebecca's characterization is deliciously and complexly vintage Rebecca, Her speech! Only Rebecca can pull off a "screw you all" speech while coming across as both diplomatic and sweet! Warner deftly handles the entire ensemble, giving attention to all the regulars and most of the favorite secondary characters.
There are plenty of unexpected and awesome character interactions Cappie and Ashleigh talking Greek philosophy, Rebecca and Dale having a, . . hearttoheart Kinda as well as progress on some familiar ground Evan, Calvin and Grant negotiating the hostile waters of Omega Chi, Casey trying to keep a level amp loving head about Cappie's inability to seize the future or at least declare a major.
Much like the show, there are fun pop culture references as well as academic references Cappie's writing a paper on Aristotle and robots, for crying out loud! and a sly joke about the school's ceaselessly perfect weather.


Also, in addition to Greek system hijinks, favorite characters being awesome, and all that fun stuff, there's a nice theme of "What sort of legacy are we leaving for the future" woven throughout the various subplots.


Highly recommended to fans of the show!

She used the last bits of time machine fuel which is made from dilithium crystals to track back to make sure she was twenty eight when this book was published, or twenty nine if there were delays in the production until August.
Warner lives in New York City, where she has the popular job of walking around the city in an ill fitting suit, So far she has avoided getting murdered or stumbling upon a murdered body, As watching three episodes of Law Order will tell you, pretty much everyone in New York City is either murdered or stumbles upon a murdered body.
She has considerable faith in her audience for being both mature enough for this subject matter and for getting most of the references above.
