For every ounce of heartbreak in Paint Me Beautiful, Stunich has given a pound of beauty in Color Me Pretty.  When I woke up and saw this book in my email, I did a happy dance all over my living room.  I had been in complete turmoil since I was left with Claire dying on the bathroom floor.  I had to know what was going to happen!!I DEVOURED this book in just two hours.  In all of my reading experience, I have never cared as much about a fictional character as I do for Claire Simone.  Her story is completely heartbreaking and totally beautiful.Throughout the course of reading this book, I cried, I prayed, I walked on egg shells, and I developed a huge smile with tears in my eyes.  Watching Claire transform into the beautiful woman that she truly is inside was absolutely breathtaking.  I rarely reread books, but this is a duet of books that will be reread often for me.  This story is too beautiful to only enjoy once.Just like the first book, I highly recommend this one.  Of course, if you read the first book, there's no doubt in my mind that you will be craving this second installment.  I can't help but feel that Claire's story could continue *hint hint*, but even as it is, the ending is absolutely perfect.  I couldn't imagine a better ending to Claire's story.Note: I received this book from the author for an honest review.
