Overview

Kane and Harper know what they want:

Beth and Adam.

And they know how to get it:

Break up the shiny happy couple once and for all.

Miranda thinks she knows how to hit on Kane (Mr. Unattainable). But she could take a few pointers from the all-knowing Kaia, who's seducing Mr. Powell, teacher en franΓ§ais. And Reed? Well, he just knows how to have a good time....

Know the feeling?

Synopsis

Publishers Weekly

Envy is next on Robin Wasserman's list in the Seven Deadly Sins series. The clan from the launch title, Lust, is back; the new installment opens as Beth traces Adam's back while contemplating her suspicions of Adam and Kaia ("who looked like a model and sounded... like a phone sex operator"). The author fills readers in as they go, so they can pick up here or start with the first book-which PW called a "guilty pleasure." Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

About the Author, Robin Wasserman

Robin Wasserman enjoys writing about high school — but wakes up every day grateful that she doesn't have to relive it. She recently abandoned the beaches and boulevards of Los Angeles for the chilly embrace of the East Coast, as all that sun and fun gave her too little to complain about. She now lives and writes in New York City, which she claims to love for its vibrant culture and intellectual life. In reality, she doesn't make it to museums nearly enough, and actually just loves the city for its pizza, its shopping, and the fact that at three A.M. you can always get anything you need — and you can get it delivered.

School Library Journal

Gr 9 Up-This sequel to Lust (S & S, 2005) rejoins the overindulged, morally bankrupt students of Haven High who are looking to entertain themselves with sex, parties, and alcohol. They all want relationships with someone who is unavailable and are willing to do anything, and hurt anyone, to achieve their goal. As with the earlier book, the truly unlikable characters are overshadowed by surprisingly good storytelling. Honor and trust are unimportant and the cruelty shown to best friends is especially appalling. Readers who are looking for a fast-paced, soap-opera-style novel will enjoy this compelling and frightening look into what kids today are talking about and dealing with.-Stephanie L. Petruso, Anne Arundel County Public Library, Odenton, MD Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
