Week 12 Review: Tattoo

From Goodreads:

Bailey Morgan isn't the type of girl who shows a lot of skin, but somehow, she ends up in a dressing room at the mall with her friend Delia applying a temporary tattoo to her lower back. Never one to suffer fashion doubt, trendsetter Delia knows exactly where she wants her own tattoo: on her stomach, right where her shirt ends—can you say "midriff"? Annabelle, the quiet one, chooses the back of her neck, and tomboy Zo plasters hers on the top of her foot. The tattoos will last for three days, and Delia's sure that with them, the four friends will absolutely kill at the school dance.

Unfortunately, killing is just what someone has in mind, and Bailey, Delia, Annabelle, and Zo are in for the battle of their lives. Along with her tattoo, each girl receives a gift—a supernatural power to help them in their fight. As Bailey's increasingly frightening dreams reveal the nature of their enemy, it becomes clear to the girls that it's up to them to save the world. And if they can get Delia to stop using her newfound power to turn gum wrappers into Prada pumps, they might actually stand a chance.

My Review:
Oh, I really enjoyed reading this book! I've read almost all of Jennifer Lynn Barnes books at this point, I think I just have the sequel, and I'll have read everything. I was just slightly nervous because this is one of her earlier books, but I shouldn't have been, because it was fantastic!

The idea of these tattoos giving these girls these abilities was pretty cool. I loved how this group of friends dealt with everything, and I really enjoyed their relationships with one another. They were just so great to read about! 

Watching the investigation into the tattoos, and what they were learning from them, was really fantastic. This world with this magic was just so interesting, and I really enjoyed the lore and how it works! And oh, that reveal about the bad guy was so great! 

I really enjoyed that ending, and how it all went down, and this is a duology, so I'm really excited to see where things will go from here! Things have changed for them all, but espcailly Bailey, and I can't wait to watch the rest of her journey! 

Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to read the sequel!
