Another great book put out by MTV publishing. YA book, with good writing that grabbed me from start to finish. There is only one thing I didn't like about it and that is an unfinished resolution about a minor plot point that I won't give away. It doesn't distract from the maine story it's self though.

I was about 1/3rd of the way through with the book before I really got into it... but stick with it, because in the end it's a satisfying read!

If you are a fan of books like The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Hairstyles of the Damned, then you will enjoy this novel. Yes, it is a "young adult" novel, but it definitely a worthwhile read for the not-so-young-adult. This story is about a 14-year old socially awkward punk-like teenager, trying to find her place in school and with her family. Definitely a book one can relate to, remembering back to those awkward middle school years. Intense at times, and funny at other times, it is a quick read that kept my interest the entire time.
