Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Aside from the atrocious grammar and spelling/punctuation errors, this felt like it was written by a young teen for a young teen audience. Short dumbed down sentences, corny lines, unreal situations and eye-rolling stereotypes. The story was sssssooooooooo drawn out and the character development was just...nothing. The story droned on and on about how much the boy next door made her heart flutter every time he held her hand which was all so dull. And then all of a sudden, at the very end of the book (as in the very last few pages), the secret was revealed and there was a (pointless) twist. The latter is not aimed to help you understand the story more but simply aimed to get you to buy the next installment of the book. Overall there was no 'meat' in this book. For example, after all the talk of juvenile kissing (so dull) the perfect boy next door gets her into bed and they have sex but there is no analysis of this, no sense of how she feels during or about sex, no moral question mark about teen sex and not a single physical detail or psychological insight - particularly ridiculous given that the whole premise of the story is based on her being raped. And even that I still don't understand. Was her father paying this guy to do the dirty with his daughter? Did the father get off by watching? What?? Why?? Some books make me feel like I wasted hours of my life. This book was one of those.
