A review by carmensutra
The Whole Thing Together by Ann Brashares

1.0

I'm not going to finish reading this book at 40% for several reasons (reasons listed in order of importance):

1. Racism--from the very first chapter
2. Unnecessary development and consistent theme of girl-on-girl hatred
3. Boring story that isn't drawing me in
4. Flat characters that I don't care about
5. There are too many good books out there that don't contain any of the above.

I know Brashers wrote Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, but this is a far cry from those books. I don't recommend this book. To anyone.
