Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler

3.0

---

I really have mixed feelings about this book. At first I really didn't like the characters and although I got to know them better as the story progressed I still didn't like Ed or Min at the ending. The diction of the writing confused me, Min wrote more like a middle schooler than a junior in high school. I still don't get why she even wanted to go out with Ed in the first place. I was really turned off by Ed in the beginning and then he was sweaty all the time (gross)! And I don't like basketball players to begin with with. But anyway back to the writing; sometimes I knew exactly what was happening but then sometimes, especially during the Halloween party, I had no idea what as going on. Overall I enjoyed the pictures but it was too confusing for me to like the plot, story, or even the ditsy characters.
