A review by christiana
Rich and Mad by William Nicholson

2.0

Not bad, but this seems to me to be more of a book written for adults with teen main characters than for teens. It kind of has "Save the Last Dance" syndrome too. It's trying to tackle way too many themes (abusive relationships, parents having trouble, first love and first sex, pornography, figuring out your identity, etc). I mean, I get that they're all tied together through the theme of love (a la Love Actually), but STILL. There's a lot happening.
