I read about, maybe, three chapters into this. I feel the younger me would have enjoyed this book but I'm proud to say that my tastes have grown a bit.

Kira has just started a summer internship at Skirt magazine, only THE best fashion magazine there is. The summer before her freshman year at Columbia should be a time to soak up as much experience as she can and get to know the city, but the drama at the magazine kind of takes over. Determined to be the best intern and win the coveted editor-in-chief internship, Kira has a setback when she realizes that her biggest competition is Daphne Hughes, the daughter of the publishing magnate who owns the magazine. It looks to be a long summer...
I really liked this chick-lit for teens. It was a quick read that kept my attention throughout.

It was an entertaining enough story, but the writing was atrocious. It felt like the authors were trying way too hard to fit in with current slang, but it just didn't work. And I didn't get a sense of the personality of the main character at all, or anything about her, her appearance, her family, anything. It was all about other people. Not a great book.

Bittersweet Sixteen was better, but this was very good. I love books by these two.
I love how they always make their main characters likable!

Kira eats, drinks, and breathes fashion. And she gets the dream job she's always wanted--summer intern at her favorite magazine. But all that glitters is not gold, and Kira learns the hard way in this novel.

I read this just because I wanted to catch up with my reading for the month and this was a short book. I never let myself do that, but I figured that it was okay. I enjoyed this book. I didn't love it though. It had it's usual contemporary flaws in my eyes. It was short and really fast paced so it skimmed over a lot of parts that I would have loved to know more about. It always bothers me with the OMG love at first sight thing. She was going to college time to stop being naive. The Matt thing wasn't a huge shock to me. The theft part did kinda surprise me. I thought it was kinda funny how everyone was practically going to an ivy school. It was pretty predictable, but enjoyable though. It reminded me a little bit of The Devil Wears Prada. It always shows the other editors as being such great characters. I think they were probably my favorite characters in the whole book.

Memorable characters and decent writing, but the plot was only average. The story was fairly predictable, but not completely corny. Overall, it was an okay book. I didn't love it and I didn't hate it.
