Pushing the Limits.
Because it wasn't a book based mostly on Hispanic stereotypes.

Loved both ! But PTL would be more intense and darker than PC... Plus while I think PC was about Bad boy meet good girl and falling in love, PTL was more about two lost and broken teenagers struggling to go back to normality and and finding solace in each other's arms...
If we're looking to compare books in the Hispanic genre, the 5th street gym series by Elizabeth Reyes was really great! I was not a fan of Chemistry, something about the writing format didn’t give with me.
Perfect Chemistry, more action and romantic scenes :)
This is just wrong! In so many ways I love these two books and could read them a millions times, which I've about done. I just can't torture myself and choose.
Pushing the limits without a doubt. I loved everything about this book.
Definitely Pushing the Limits, there was a lot more going on and it was better written that Perfect Chemistry. I felt Noah and Echo had more chemistry than Alex and Brittany!
I loved both books, but because I read "Perfect Chemistry" first and because I loved Alex and Brittany's relationship I'm going to say "Perfect Chemistry"!
honestly, i couldn't choose even if i tried. I think that they were both amazingly written and I'm hooked on both of them. Each book,although very similar, had some differences that made each book unique in its own way.One difference is that Alex and Brittany came from two different worlds and their similarities brought them together while Echo and Noah live very similar lives while their differences brought them together.
PERFECT CHEMISTRY ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!it had way more scenes with Alex and Britt that you can understand why the fell in love.but pushing the limits was just ugh like the barley had time together
i luvv both of them but if i HAD to choose, then it would be perfect chemistry
Both are super enjoyable books, totally loved them. But I'm gonna have to go with pushing the limits. The plot itself I just find more interesting and the main character is just amazing.
This is a REALLY hard question, because I REALLY like both for their own reasons. So can I say BOTH! :)
OMG.. I couldn't get passed the sample for Perfect Chemistry! I'm starting to doubt myself... should I give it another chance?
I feel I must compare these two but I can't bc I didn't finish Perfect Chemistry!! Ahh

both series are good...but I think I like pushing limits better!
I seriously can't decide !! I mean the love both Noah and Echo and Britney and Alex share is unbelievably strong ! Both grabbed me and refused to let me go! They are both incredibly good books that its impossible to chose.

love both of them! i can't really choose between them..but i liked more pushing limits because the story is a little unusual and diffrent :)
While I loved pushing the limits, Perfect Chemistry definitely wins out.
1. The action
Pushing the limits did have it's moments but Perfect Chemistry had much more suspense and action scenes that were nail-biting. This had a lot to do with Alex's gang relations. It kept the story moving evenly for sure.
2. The romance
Pushing the limits had that, no doubt about it but Perfect Chemistry had more "steamy" scenes. It was a teen book so they can't go too far but it was definitely great.
3. The pet names
Okay. Everyone is probably cringing thinking like "really she's whining about this?" but the term "baby" is so overdone and cheesy that I actually I changed it in my mind every time he said it. Perfect Chemistry had much more creative and meaningful pet names that will stick with me which is a good thing.
The character built up is a pro for pushing the limits though. I felt that you really got to know Noah more than Alex. I felt the brotherly bond was stronger but I think that was just because the scene where Jacob talked about his little story got to me.
I cried in both books. I smiled in both books. I laughed in both books. I loved both books.
In the end I liked Perfect Chemistry more, it grabbed me more. Still read both though, they're both great!

Didn't LOVE either of them... but I'd say Pushing the Limits... probably... actually, I don't really know... maybe Perfect Chemistry...*conflicting emotions*
I liked Perfect Chemistry better but agree it seems an odd comparison. I'd be more likely to compare PTL to Leaving Paradise, but do have to confess that in that case Leaving Paradise would still win. I really like Simone Elkeles writing voice, you can tell she has a lot of novels under her belt. That said, Katie McGarry's work gets better and better. Perfect Chemistry versus Crashed Into You - that's my debate.
PERFECT CHEMISTRY IS BY FAR ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WRITTEN BOOKS
Noah and Echo, or Alex and Brittany? Can't choose.

Perfect Chemistry
If you only count the first book in both series, I believe that Perfect Chemistry is better. It was written better and makes you want the characters together, whereas in Pushing the Limits I wanted them together but not like in Perfect Chemistry.
But, if you add the next few books, Pushing the Limits book 3, Crash Into You, takes the cake!

Pushing the Limits, definitely. Stronger characters, stronger storytelling, more depth even in the secondary characters.

I love both. But I would say Pushing the Limits. It has stronger characters and the story is more interesting.
well i though Perfect Chemistry was trying to deal with the negative aspects in a variety of ethnicities...i didnt really think it was using stereotypes, just trying to be real and showing the negative, hey it exists. Great book.
TOTALLY Perfect Chemistry because it was funny and charming all at the same time although I will admit I liked Pushing the Limits as well
I liked Perfect Chemistry, but Loved Loved LOVED Pushing the Limits!

Both of them are great books, but i prefer Pushing the limits, the characters felt more real and less stereotyped than Perfect Chemistry
