While I see the merits of this book and I can totally understand why someone would love this book, I'm past high school dramas. It was so frustratingly, unendingly dramatic, and I wasn't sold enough on the romance at the end. I wish it were more about things other than the drama and the meanness of fictional high schoolers. I appreciated the diversity of the characters both main and side. It was a headache to read for me, but, if movies like Mean Girls are your thing, like REALLY your thing, then more power to you. You'll probably enjoy this book, so give it a try!
