I thought this book was great! I'm not a big reader, but I couldn't put it down at all. There are some things in there that seem unrealistic, like a parent approving of an older man dating thier young daughter. But I think the author gave a great insight into this teenager's head. The girl in the story is growing up and is confused even though she thinks she knows it all. Like all teenage girls do when they are 14. They think they are all grown up. It may be that I'm young and I can relate better than some of the older readers, but this book is superb.I recomend it to anyone.
