“Cars are easy. Something doesn’t work right? You replace the broken part with a new one. If they’re failing, there’s always a reason and one that’s usually fixable. I can’t really say the same about people.”Unbreakable is the second book in the Diamond Girls Series, but can be totally be read as a stand-alone! This book centered around Olivia aka Livvie, Nev’s cousin. If you have read book 1 you pretty much know who the players are. However unlike Ex-Factor this book focuses mainly around Livvie! Let me stop here and just say I def think that Ex-factor was a better book, not that I didn’t enjoy this story, I just like the flow better in book 1.As we know Livvie is that picture perfect girl. She is the perfect character, her hair, her make up, her friends, even the way she talked was perfect! Seriously I was almost turned off with her little words aka Fudge-pop. Let’s add in the mix she is a cheerleader with the most supportive mother in history!! I don’t know but something about her made her hard to attach to. I almost found myself wanting her to screw up, say F***, I don’t know I just wanted her to be more REAL!!However I will say that Elisa puts this girl through hell in this book!! Livvie has quite a schedule to balance but what makes it almost unbearable is the dick of a boyfriend she is attached to. Seriously J.P. is the biggest Douche in book form. I wanted to not only punch him in the face, but I wanted to just scream at him while doing it. Nev sees all of this going on but can’t convince Livvie to just walk away. Enter me wanting to strangle Livvie with both hands.And then THANK YOU GOD for Reid Tate, because well, he is pretty much another Bodie. Honestly, I think I almost fell in love with him instantly. He is all bad boy, take care of you, take no s***, isn’t changing for anyone, perfection. I will say if given a choice between him or Bodie I would totally pick him.“Reid’s dark hair, bad boy attitude, and general ‘I’ll drive you through h*** and back and you’ll love every minute of it’ was one hundred times more appealing.”I will say the Reid and Livvie’s relationship left me more attached to them than I was with Nev’s and Bodie’s. There are amazing parts of this book and there are parts that made me want to throttle both of them. If you are a fan of YA you will love this whole series!!
