Review: High word count, depth, not so much.

I didn't love this book, but I didn't hate it either.  Some of the other reviewers touched on this books "trouble spots".  Conversations that have no value (every time!). Lots of words with very little actually said, words that could have been better used elsewhere.  Glancing over the characters a bit too much... I felt like I was on the verge of getting what someone was like but then the author pulled away.  But what did this book in for me were the relationships.  Everyone loved or hated people INSTANTLY.  Richard loved her after a kind of sort of second date, her friend hated her instantly after cancelling something, the parents hated Brandon because he only ate a steak... where's the growth?  The ending left a lot to be desired as well: kiss, pain, the end!  Huh what?  I had to suffer through her and Richard's "relationship", at least reward me with more than a paragraph of them getting together at the end!!I know, that all sounds like hate, but I would recommend this to someone looking for a "beach book".  Something quick, yummy, imaginative  but without the "Oh I don't want to put this down!" agony.
