SELLING OUT is the latest book out by the amazing author Amber Lin.  This book was raw, dirty, uncomfortable, and at times sickening...and I loved every single minute of it!Oh wow.  This is a book that will stay with me for a long time.  Shelly's story was gut-wrenching.  She was just so utterly screwed up, I ached for her.  But then I got more of Luke's story and I was just blown away.  When I met him before, I didn't particularly care for him because he seemed to act superior to Shelly but that wasn't the case at all.  The two of them.  Man, they shouldn't have worked, but they just did.SELLING OUT had this twisting plot that I could get parts of but there was no way I could have figured everything out. I was floored by the end simply because of all the intricacies that Amber Lin had to weave in in order to make it all work.  It was simply astounding.My only, ONLY, complaint about SELLING OUT, and the reason I couldn't give five stars was because I felt like Shelly and Luke were robbed!  Robbed, I say.  I just didn't feel like they got the romance they both deserved after all their struggle.  I wanted to see more of that.  I really did!Still, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.  SELLING OUT is the second in the Lost Girl series, but it could be easily read as a standalone.  However, if you haven't read the first book, Giving It Up, you should check it out because it was amazing.And even though I didn't quite love SELLING OUT  as much as Giving It Up, I cried, cringed, laughed a little, but mostly I just read in awe of the complete awesomeness that is Amber Lin.  She's an amazing writer and she's definitely found a devoted fan in me.Reviewed by Rhofor TheRomanceReviews.com
