This book was pretty good. The beginning was funny, but the middle and end dropped that tone a bit which was disappointing. I liked Alaine's voice in the book, it was clear and distinct, and I thought that using letters and documents to help tell the story was a unique touch. The ending was okay, not my favorite and I doubt I'll reread this book anytime soon but overall, it was a pretty good book. My main complaint is with the cover of the US paperback, the clear film on my copy kept peeling back along the edges and as someone who likes to keep all my books looking perfect this was a distraction.
