The first bit of the book was amateurish. Desert came across as a brat; a spoilt, selfish brat. It had no depth. I thought, just some teen fluff. Let me just finish it. A new book will be added to my read shelf. The rating then was around two stars.
But, towards the end, it had some turmoil and some angst. She wasn't just going on and on about how her life sucks when actually it didn't. The plot evolved and the depth increased. The story was no longer a teenage fluff. this teenager had problems. Real ones.
Readable if you have the time.
Ps. The poems in the book are really good!

I haven't read every book in the universe, but I'm pretty Desert McGraw is the most overprivileged, self-centered and obnoxious main character that ever existed, a fact that's made all the worse by the 1st person narrative that doesn't let the reader escape her bitchy whining for a second.

I swear I only finished this because I'm a) procrastinating, and b) a masochist. Maybe I should go for Twilight next. -.-
