![]() wish list (50) Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. ![]() ![]() I actually have incredibly mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, Painchaud's writing is fun and fast--once I started reading, I couldn't bring myself to stop, and the book went by in a flash. There were moments where the writing and mix of emotions were spot-on. On the other hand... the voice didn't ring true, and the turmoil of the narrator felt rushed, at best. At various points, I felt like things were too heavy-handed, and that the book might have brilliant if the author had started a bit earlier and given the reader a chance to get to know the character Before things started rolling, instead of after. In some ways, it felt like the easy way out -- the character was already struggling before readers got a peak inside, and thus, the transformation was halfway over before the book even began (which, as you might guess, caused a fairly predictable unwinding of the plot and the characters). So, yes, I've got mixed feelings. I don't think I'd recommend it, but I might read something else by Painchaud--especially if it weren't in a teenager's voice, as I think part of the problem here was that the voice just wasn't believable, too much of the time. So, yeah, I don't know. I never really thought about not finishing, which says something, but I also can't imagine recommending it to another reader, which likely says far more.
