It seemed like a dumbed down version of the trials & tribulations of Hogwarts. I read the entire book in one night - a wasted night I can't ever get back. The language is insulting to the teens it represents, the pop culture asides are completely annoying, the characters are underdevelopped and the storyline is predictably unoriginal. Not only do I suggest grown-up readers avoid this series, but I don't think I'd even recommend it to the YA audience it's directed towards.
