Broken is all about Eric and Lena from the first book SAVE and OMG...yes, this is how broken people come to be for real. I found this one to be so much darker and sadder than the first one (even with the crazy EX attacks) because we see a side of Lena that was not revealed previously and we also gain an even better understanding of the relationship between Eric, Josh and Lindsay.Lena had a much tougher upbringing than we knew and it explains why she is the independent, successful artist she grew up to be...pictures are like the window to your soul and she can see it clearly through her art.Eric and his "love 'em and leave 'em" ways is also easier to sympathize with or at least understand after we get his whole back story and together these two very broken people find their way.Where SAVE gave me goosebumps and suspense, BROKEN made me cry and think back to my own dysfunctional childhood and growing up a target in high school by mean girls (and boys) so I really appreciated the honesty of this book.I gave this one ****4**** stars because some parts dragged on a bit but overall it was well worth reading =)
