I always enjoy diving into a new series and discovering a new author. Tracie Pucket's Breaking Rules has turned me into a fan right from the start. From the moment I met the main character Mandy, I instantly felt attached to her. I connected with the character because she's strong, willful, and determined, but she does not come without flaws. In a series I think the hardest part is of course introducing all the characters and representing them well enough that so the reader actually cares about them. Puckett does this very well without being obvious about it. I never like to rehash plot, because I don't want to ever give anything away for other readers who also are experiencing a new series for the first time too. I will say, I felt lot of major frustration with certain characters in the book because I feel their motivations are not clearly defined. Of course in due time those will be clear as I keep reading, so let me make it plain that is not a criticism of the writing, it was just my own reaction to the events as they unfolded before me. I am eager to read on and am glad I found this amazing indie author! I give Breaking Rules 5 stars because I loved having a book make me happy, frustrated and curious, this is a true testament of great writing!
