Although this book was better than Bumped, I still wasn't captivated by Megan McCafferty's story. I'm glad I read this book though because it redeemed Bumped, and tied up all of the loose ends from that book.
Twin sisters Harmony and Melody are both pregnant...kind of. Harmony is pregnant with JonDoe's twin babies, but the world thinks they are her husband Ram's babies. Melody is claiming she is pregnant with JonDoe's babies, when really she is sporting a fake baby bump, and she is in love with her best friend Zen. When Harmony escapes from Goodside, she goes into labor the very next day while Melody is in school. What will happen when the world finds out that Melody, one of the most popular baby bumpers in society has been lying to them all along. What about the Jayden's who are waiting patiently for their babies to arrive?
This book fits in with all of the dystopian society books that are emerging, but it still leaves something to be desired. It was a decent read, but there are so many better books out there, and in order to get to this book, you have to suffer through the first book in the series.
