So I really wanted to love this book. The cover was great and the premise sounded promising. I loved Louise Rennison's books and thought this would be similar. Unfortunately, I was put off on page 1. The characters in this book at some points seemed way too young to be 16. At first, I thought the book was about pre-teens, soo juvenile and dumb were the characters. I also didn't get the laughs that I was expecting to get.The book was promising and could have been really good but there was also a lot of mix-ups with tense, grammar and vocab. Many times I had to go back and look at the word choice because it didn't fit.Worth a read if you are younger.
