louvejita 's review for:
The Bro Code
by Elizabeth A. Seibert
This was a book I picked because it looked like a straight up story about a best friend’s little sister romance with a HS background and I’m a fan of young adult stories. I didn’t expect it to be a dissection of rules for the boys of the popular clique at the school and how it translates into our politically correct world.
There was a lot to this book and I think it could be a great story. Unfortunately, I didn’t care for it one bit and not because of its contents, but everything else.
I didn’t like the writing and felt the story failed to have an established plot/properly developed story line. It kept jumping around without grasping at one thing and even the family and friendship issues took a back seat to the drama of the main character getting into college.
IMO there was a lot that could have been done with the story as there are a lot of lessons packed in the final interpretation of the code itself, but the delivery was trying too hard to be on the politically correct wave and was quite sloppy for my taste. I don’t believe one can fix a story with passable last chapters and a decent epilogue.
