Title: Nothing Special
Product review: Definitely one of the most overrated books I've ever read. Not a bad book, really, but I expected it to be a lighhearted story about a teenage girl coping with her family and her obesity. That's how it seems to be advertised, anyway. While I liked Dolores, she didn't come across as a lovable and unforgettable character. And I felt I didn't really get to know the other characters that well. Also, situations in the story just seem to happen out of the blue, and are over before I understood what was happening to Dolores. I had to re-read certain parts a couple of times to figure out what was happening. It does get more interesting towards the end, but not much more interesting. All in all, it's an okay book, but not the memorable pageturner I expected.
