Siena by Helen Eve - review

Helen Eve, Siena

Siena by Helen Eve is as you can guess about a girl called Siena. She is Stella's older sister and she battles to fulfil her mother's vicarious ambitions and to continue to reign over Temperley High. She and the Starlets may still be healing from the horrible events from the end of last term, but nothing can challenge Siena's place except Romy. The former Starlet, is back – back from France and no one is happy about it, especially not Siena. But somehow she's different and is trying to keep her head down. But she can't seem to come back without a fight!

I didn't really enjoy this prequel to Helen Eve's first novel Stella. I found it hard to keep up with everything that was going on and nothing ever really got me excited therefore I would only give it 2/5 stars but perhaps if I had read Stella I would have enjoyed it more!
