HOW DO BOOKS LIKE THIS GET PUBLISHED?

HOW
The premise sounded fun. Kinda like a teen movie. But no the book was just utter tripe. I only have myself to blame but the characters are like something out of a fanfiction no development, just playing into the fantasies of the writer. And I know I keep harping on about this, but when you have 17-18 yr olds believing that the perfect life is marriage and kids you have to wonder what's wrong with society. Not being able to view sex as a separate entity, and going along with slut-shaming and the like. Even the language in the book 'she's easy but Hazel's different' aka Hazel's a virgin. But then forcing said character into a weird feminst mould 'I respect women's sexuality' ARGH! ARGH! So weird.
