This freaking series!!!!!!!!!!! For real though, I am a huge fan. I am kind of over Keatyn not letting go of Brooklyn. WHAT has he done? Nothing!!!!!! He is out living his dream. DATING. And not giving to shits truthfully about her. And Aiden??? Um, I'd let that boy do any dang thing he wanted to me and never question it. He may have the best book boyfriend award. If Dodd turns him into a frog I'm gonna lose it!!!!!!!! They are fate and I want my HEA. I love all the characters!!! I even love the villians!!! How is that even possible? I think this is the most entertaining series I have read.

Sometimes I get questioned why I am a KC Addict. When Jillian Dodd releases a new book in this series, I wonder how anyone would even have to ask. This series is truly gripping, addicting, and just amazing - and this book is my favorite in the series so far (which is saying something, because I professed my undying love for Love Me).

I promise - no spoilers - but I will say this: YOU WILL SWOON FOR A.


Keatyn and Aiden's relationship has had so many ups and downs (like seriously, a freaking roller coaster of them), but I think we finally get a full book of their love without any unnecessary drama. (Well, almost - but I don't want to give anything away.)

But, Hate Me is not just about swooning over dreamy A (I know, I know - don't shoot me), but it's about Keatyn finally taking the control of her life that she's been dying to take. Keats is ready to fight, and boy does she cause some trouble.



There is definitely some sadness in this book, but most of it is fun and full of the deliciousness that makes the KC what it is (clothes, parties, boys, drama - all the fun stuff).



And, once again, Jillian Dodd will leave you REELING at the end. Like, I was swiping on my iBooks app and cursing out loud because I was like, "THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS THE END! THIS IS NOT HAPPENING!"



But, that just makes the wait for Get Me that much more exciting and anticipating. I can't believe this series is almost over, and I think I'm really going to need like a full day of crying when it is.

Bottom line - read this series. Read this book. Join this Facebook group to discuss all things KC (https://www.facebook.com/groups/426579377395445/) and give in to the KC addiction.

5 yes-please, give-me-more, oh-my-hottie-god, shoe-porn, dramalicious stars.

Based on the title of this book, I definitely saw everything coming. I knew something like this would happen.

But oh, I so wish it didn't end like that! NooooOOOOOooOOo. Keatyn frustrates me at times. She can trust her friends. She didn't have do something like that. I suppose it's in her nature, but I really wished she'd shown some more character development and growth by this point.

There were definitely some sweet moments, but they got overshadowed by the pseudo-"action"/dramatic ones. Unfortunately, it wasn't as good as the other Keatyn Chronicle books. Some of the "creative" ideas got a little overdone and repetitive by now too. But hey, I definitely have high hopes for the last book. I can't wait to see Vincent get taken down once and for all.

ALSO, KEATYN + AIDEN = ENDGAME. IT HAS TO HAPPEN.

Aiden is too sweet, too nice, and "too good to be true", he bored me. I used to like him before i read this 5th book, though, so i hope his character develop more on the next and final instalment.

I'm very proud and glad Keatyn is fighting back now. She's being very brave. I love her and Aiden together. He is perfect in every way possible. Vincent is still scary as shit. I don't love the ending. I get why she did it but she also could've just made something up instead of revealing everything in that way.

Omfg!! I can't believe that Keatyn actually told her friends form Eastbrooke the truth about who she really is!! I've been wanting for her tell them all this time, but she told her friends like that! In the middle of the stage at winter formal! All of her friends are mad at her, including Aiden. I get where they are coming from, but I also think that they should give her the time to explain herself. And that is don't know, that she is being stalked! And he is threatening everyone she loves!

Whittany is a total *****! She just acted like she was Peyton's friend again, joust to show everyone that Peyton and the guy soccer coach had an affair! Who does that?!? I wanted to laugh out loud when Keatyn showed her all of the dirty texts that she sent Camden. She was scared. Ha! Have a taste of your own medicine Whittany!!!


I love Keatyn and Aiden together. They are, like, perfect! I am a little mad at Aiden though. He must walked out when Keatyn was telling him aboiut the truth about who she really was. I mean, yeah I get it, she lied to you and you lare hurt but at least let her explain! There is a lot more you don't knew dude! And he also promised her that he would never leave her or get mad and leave again! Yeah dude, you did a pretty good freaking job of holding that promise! But even though I am mad at Aiden, I still love them together.

I think that it is awesome that Keatyn is going to fight back against Vincent. You go girl! She is tired of not seeing her family, or B everyday. She dos t want to miss anymore birthdays or Christmas's. She doesn't want to miss all of the bad things that the dog, Bad KiKi (yes, that is the dogs actual name) does. So she is going to take his company, and the movie with it. And she is sending her own black rose petal to his office. Take that Vincent!

I gave this book only four stars because I did not like how w Aiden left in the end when Keatyn to,d everyone the truth, also I didn't like how Annie and Katie reacted. I am also mad at them too! Over all though, I am totally going to be reading the next book! :)
