This was a pleasant surprise. I haven't read a lot of YA contemporary before, so I decided to give it a chance. I have seen the movie some time ago and liked it, so I decided to try the book. I was pleased that the book was a bit different from the movie, or else it might have been a boring read. I did like the book version a bit more - it felt more real and less Hollywood influenced.

I did have som issues with the whole feminist message of the book when at the same time the main character was pretty judgemental towards boys. Other than that I really enjoyed it.
