The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club is an addictive romance. It is such a good summer beach read. Light, fun and it has a very cute love story to boot. The underlying plot that the book starts off as is funny and kind of convoluted. There is a secret fan club, and two people that secretly like each other but now outwardly hate each other. Throw in the parents remarrying each other and you know that you will have plenty of antics to keep you entertained.

Zack Warren is hot and popular enough to warrant a fan club, but thinks he is so much more, or different, from the rumors. And you know what, he genuinely was different. I had my doubts, but he was actually a nice guy! He was protective, ambitious, driven and just a tad bit jealous. (but you know what? I actually like my book boyfriends to be a little bit jealous sometimes. It makes me tingly. If that sort of thing isn't for you, I totally get that- but he wasn't annoyingly caveman or anything like that. It was kind of adorable when he got jealous actually.)

Chloe is stubborn and also kind of adorable. I really like the two of them together. Their story is pure fun. I thought it was hilarious how worked up she gets about the fan club at the start of the book. It was also a pretty funny story. I love witty writing, and The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club. The only thing I didn't like about the book was Chloe's best friend, Lana. I couldn't stand her. I didn't think she added anything to the story except to annoy me. I didn't think she was a good friend at all. But luckily, she isn't in the story too much.

While the storyline is not completely original, the fan club idea throws a new twist into the mix and I really enjoyed that. I also really liked that this is going to be a series, where each book focuses on a different character. Up next is a real sweetie from this book, Zack's friend, and I can't wait to see what his story will be like. If you are looking for a great contemporary with witty characters, great writing, and and a sweet and sexy romance, you should definitely check out The Unofficial Zack Warren Fan Club!
