eff_dot 's review for:
Undiscovered Gyrl: The Novel That Inspired the Movie Ask Me Anything
by Allison Burnett
oh good golly gosh. this may be the first book i give up on. it's forcing me to make faces of disgust on public transit. so far it's not quite rivaling the terrible movie I watched last night (THE KATE LOGAN AFFAIR, avoid at all costs), but it's getting close.
Alright, I gave up. My first book ever. Perhaps I'm giving up too soon, as many of the reviews I have read are quite good. I refuse to go back to it though. I will give it this much... it does a great job of mimicking a teenage blog. Is that really a compliment though? I guess as it was the objective, it is a compliment, but I think that's part of the reason I gave up on it. I can't even stand reading my own blog from when I was a teenager, let alone someone far more spoiled, lazy and conceited. (not to say that i didn't have my moments) I found it hard to relate or like anything about the main character, so how do you push forward and read the inner thoughts of a character you despise?
The answer... you don't.
