Horrible book wouldn't recommend..... (11/6/2018)
To be honest I think the author could've done a lot better in keeping me awake through this book. Halfway through the book I thought to myself "this book isn't that bad". Then as i got to the end, it turned into a teen romance novel.That is when I started to cringe and I stopped reading around 5/6 of the way through. Who decided that it was good to flash forward after two teenagers kissing, then to after them having intercourse? The female teenage character then described what the other character's mouth felt like; which is something no child should have to listen to.
Normally I love reading books and will sit for hours reading one. This book is much different. I read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows within 3 days. This book took me over 1 week to finish - keeping in mind this book is only about 400 pages long. Not only is this book boring, it also sends the wrong message to teens about when the right age is to have intercourse. Not to mention, having intercourse is illegal below the age of 18! Not only were they breaking the law, they were sending a bad message to teens everywhere. If you have read my review of this horrid book, I thank you and hope you never let your teenager read this book.
