Where to start with this book.  There is so much to love about this book!  Isis and Jack's story is a unique and tragic one.  One that you will get lost in from the first sentence.Isis, guarded and sarcastic.  She deals with everything through jokes and sarcasm.  She hides her emotions under her sleeve.  Her intrigue with those around her is interesting.  She finds herself in a battle of gossip and wits.  All the while, she finds herself drawn to the one boy in town that doesn't allow himself to have relationships because of the past.  Then, there is her new found friend.  One who willing her accepts her at face value instead of judging her like everyone else.Jack, the Ice Prince.  He keeps to himself.  He has severed his friendships from his childhood.  However, he finds himself wanting to battle with Isis and know everything about her.  Keeping her at arms length proves to be harder than he thought.These two have their own pasts that they are running from.  Secrets can either undo the friendship they build or tear them apart.... Then when the past catches up with one of them, things get hairy... things get dangerous... things get more than messed up....I loved this story.  The back and forth between these two was amusing and entertaining.  The secrets... I still don't know all of the secrets... This story is well written.  The characters fit perfectly.  There was only one thing I didn't like about the book, which has me wondering where Sara Wolf is from... The use of the word "recess" throughout the book... There is no such thing as recess in high school.  There is free period, there is study hall, never recess.  This bugged me being as it was mentioned many times.
