Woke Up Like This by Amy Lea

lighthearted fast-paced

2.5

Sometimes YA fiction can appeal to all ages, and sometimes it's just meant for young adults - this was in the latter category.  It was cute, but it was also silly and angsty, and the main character was annoyingly over-the-top stubborn.  I was personally appalled by the casual references to driving unsafely - 'lightly grazing' a pregnant woman while parking a car, attempting to drive a futuristic car while not understanding how it works, and don't get me started on 'car hide-and-seek'.  I can't laugh at unsafe driving, nor will I ever find it a 'quirky' aspect of someone's personality.  (Canada Reads 2024 longlist)
