The synopsis for this book doesn't give much away and I like that. I'll admit that I read this one for the cute cover.

To say I’m slightly disappointed in The Fine Art of Truth or Dare is such an understatement. It’s truly disappointing to see this YA book fall into the ever increasing pit of boring and predictable stories where good art cover and misleading blurbs hook you only to leave you hanging. I felt I was being dragged through a torture session where the characters, plot, narrative and even the setting completely lost all of its appeal.

Also, I felt it took forever for Jensen to get to the main point of the story. There was a long stretch of time… say 140 pages or so that I was beginning to wonder what the book was truly about or where it was headed.

There's no swoon-y romance that has you on the edge of your seat, I did like the last 20 pages, thought. But that just isn't enough. Sorry, I really wanted to like this book but it was kinda boring.
