I can't quite tell if I like the main protagonists or not. I think it all stems a little to their drinking habits. If they know that they turn into idiots that make bad decisions when they drink - wouldn't logic say that they should stop? Maybe a I'm a bit of an old fogey! Especially as they don't seem to learn any lessons at all and even know this happens. Very weird to me. However, it wasn't a bad read. I enjoyed the writing style (other than the swearing) and I found this world interesting and the girls sure do have guts and an inner strength which I do admire. Just... not.... sure.... about the bully romance bit.
