This actually turned out to be a pretty good book.

At first, I was angry with almost everybody in the story. I can't say why without some spoilers, but I will say that I thought that it took WAY too long for Leelee to get a backbone. (Over half the book!) Once she did, though, it made all the difference! It was like reading two different books, the first half, then the second half. So, if you're getting frustrated with the story, just stick with it, because it does get better.

I also have to say- the ending just drops you off in such a random place that it left me scrambling to the author's website to see if there was going to be a sequel. Thankfully, yes. (Yankee Doodle Dixie- release date 9-13-11.) I know I'll have to read it, because I can't just be dropped off like this. I want to know what happens!
