For starters, I think the cover and title are awesome. But the story and the writing...eh. Ok, the writing is decent enough, but the story/plot is basically what you'd expect of a “gossip girl-esque” mainstream book...it's predictable. So predictable and stereotypical that it almost gives me Riverdale vibes. I'm not surprised - I know these type of books sell, especially to teen girls, and maybe it's just me who can't get into it. But at the end of the day, I find it predictable.
