Review: So-So Story with Silly Sayings that makes me Smirk

OK, So maybe it's not a Super, Sweet book (and, I'll Stop with the S's already, I Swear) but I'm already past the halfway mark and plan on finishing given it is a very brief read at only 139 pages. Honesty, tho, I am not really enjoying any of the characters all that much as they say and do some of the most dopey things as in the following passages  "She stuck her tongue out (saying) I didn't say 'cross my heart and hope to die", "Find Beth before the big boys did", "She and David flew through the air - and miraculously landed in a haystack" and "You had a mother?". Other times I find I'll be asking myself "Did I miss something?" only to have a character step up and explain what just happened as if the author realized the flow of the story got lost briefly and is trying to set the plot back on the path once again (which can be annoying). All-in-all, I liken it to a paperback I'll pick up to read on a trip that once finished I will orphan at my last stop in hopes someone whom may genuinely like it will grab the book and give it a home since as for me it will not be a keeper...***UPDATE***I want to apologize for being unable to finish this book and dropping the star rating from 3 stars to 2 stars as a result, but shortly after the haystack scene I just had to groan at the implausibility of it all and stop before I wasted any more of my time. Having had two wash outs in a row I am going to be returning to an author I've read before and is a known quantity. Good luck to those that wish to continue.
