Second First Impressions

I am sad to say that I really struggled with this book. I don't know if subconsciously my mind was expecting another THG or maybe if I had never read THG in the first place and read SFI first, maybe I would have liked it better. I just couldn't get into it but because I loved THG so much, I wanted to keep going. It finally picked up around the 80% mark but unfortunately by that point, it was too late to save the book for me. I'm beginning to think The Hating Game was a fluke but I really hope not. Also I really wish authors would stop making their characters dress like old ladies.
