This book is something that had been on my mind for a while. I got it near 2 years ago but couldn’t ever put my all into reading it. Despite this I loved the vibe and the characters my mind would often wander to it. In a fuel of jealous rage to read more books than [REDACTED] I pushed my way through. I finally finished it on the bus, having fun annotating and writing my thoughts. Unfortunately the ending absolutely ruined this experience.

The whole point of the book was finding out who was vandalizing the school but for some reason that was abandoned to push forward this new plot point of ruining the school mean girl. The main plot, the one thing the book was all building up to was shoved into the epilogue, a maybe 5 page resolution to all of this. Somehow the characters even managed to seem OOC by the end something I’m amazed at. How do you mess up your own characters?? I loved the experience of reading the book but the book itself could have been better.
