I don't even know where to start with this book. First off, if you are an overweight girl, DO NOT READ this book. You will feel so bad about yourself that you'll hate how you look. The word "fat" is probably used well over 100 times in this book and it is used in the worst way possible. The story was also way out there for me. I couldn't imagine the main story line happening in real life. Overall, far fetched, terribly written, not impressing.
