Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta
2.0
This is one of those books where I can appreciate what it did for YA as a genre, and particularly Australian YA, while simultaneously really fucking hating it.
Josie is one of the most fucking annoying protagonists I’ve ever read from, shes so melodramatic, selfish, and barely mellows out by the end. And the relationship with Jacob Coot is unhealthy and toxic.
Might have appreciated this more 10 years ago, but as an adult I hated nearly everything about it.
