Loved this book, perhaps because it reminds me of my own experience as a (legitimately) "nontraditional" college student amongst kids, on average, 4 to 6 years my junior. I quibble with some of the blatant stereotypes that Snow tends to embrace, but at least it becomes clear that the stereotypes are mostly in the mind of her narrator. Kathy, the protagonist of the novel, is wimpy in her "real" life and more interesting "undercover," but the book is a fast, compulsive, and entertaining read (if a little light).
I usually read the first sentence of books in my to-read pile in order to decide what to read; this one I read the whole first chapter before I realized I had decided on it. For that alone I would give it an extra star, since even the best books these days tend to begin badly.
