I liked this book overall, it kind of reminded me Angus, Thongs, and Full-Frontal Snogging. But I wasn't crazy about how Mya was so against talking about her period. While that may happen, I think it would be been powerful to show that she was able to take charge of that and appreciate what her body does naturally. Tall order for a teen going through puberty but just not so much of the this is the worst thing ever and I can't talk to anyone about this.
