My Opinion:
Let me just start by saying WOW..
I didn´t have much thoughts about this one before starting. Other then I was a bit sceptical since I got it for free on Amazon. And I haven´t really seen a single review of it. Anywhere :S
Why I absolutly don´t get. Because this book was great.
Just let me say. I started out thinking this was a book for small teens. But make that nope. There a stuff in there not apropriate for kids :P
But the book was really great. The characters were both lovable and hateable :P haha
And I must admit at once I was like WTF is going on. Me not like. But that kind of made the book good aswell. Because it has it´s twists that you really didn´t see coming :P
So yeah. I would recommend this book. I felt like it was different in so many ways. And I was never bored. :)
So need to get my hands in the sequel. :)
You probably already guessed it, but I gave this book 5 out of 6 stars

One more thing I have to point out. Proabably not a good think. But when the sex stuff was brought up. I was like. Wow this is totally a dude writing. And then I went on an checked, and yeap. the author is a dude :P People will probably think it`s a bad thing. But I liked the way it was written. Different. Because it`s just right on.. :)
