[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bought the book. I thought it would be a fun summer read like Prep, which I read many years ago, but it's pretty tedious and all of the characters, including the protagonist, Aki, are awful. I'll probably leave it in a little free library. [/quote] Yes, but they’re versions of terrible I regularly encounter at parent events, so that’s vaguely amusing despite the clunky prose and editing issues… e.g. “naval” for “navel,” calling “Make Wesley White Again” “five words” (OUCH) I have not yet tried googling people from the acknowledgements section… hard to see how you handle that with a nom de plume? And is it self-published or smallish press? I can’t tell anymore. She thanks an agent and editors. [/quote]
