This is a cute book. I appreciate the unflinching appraisal of small town high school life, but I also found the central conflict between Eleanor & Chloe increasingly difficult to believe/parse until the end. I do appreciate the tongue-in-cheek use of
Pix as a quasi manic pixie dream girl, but I also am thankful that she isn't completely pigeon-holed there


I think it was pretty good overall; as an adult reader of a lot of YA, however, it didn't really wow me.
