"Jill Jekel has always obeyed her parents’ rules – especially the one about never opening the mysterious, old box in her father’s office. But when her dad is murdered, and her college savings disappear, she's tempted to peek inside, as the contents might be key to a lucrative chemistry scholarship.
To better her odds, Jill enlists the help of gorgeous, brooding Tristen Hyde, who has his own dark secrets locked away. As the team of Jekel and Hyde, they recreate experiments based on the classic novel, hoping not only to win a prize, but to save Tristen’s sanity. Maybe his life. But Jill’s accidental taste of a formula unleashes her darkest nature and compels her to risk everything – even Tristen’s love – just for the thrill of being… bad."
To put it bluntly, I didn't enjoy Jekel Loves Hyde that much. It was an OK book, but not something I would read again. I was actually very disappointed that it went the way it did because I really enjoyed Jessica's Guide to Dating the Dark Side.
I am beginning to find the whole, 'love starts in high school chemistry class' phase getting old. To be completely serious, I am thoroughly sick of it. So many YA novels now days have the main two characters love start in, or because of, chemistry class. Such as, Perfect Chemistry and Hush, Hush, just to name a few. I found this http://readingwatchingliving.blogspot.com review to match up just about perfect with my thoughts on Jekel loves Hyde. All in all, I was disappointed and will not be reading this particular book again.
