Title: Why is this book so popular?
Product review: I bought this book for a book club meeting hoping that this would be the one that would encourage me to stay with the group. (Now sure it worked, but we did have a lively discussion on the value of friendship). We spent very little time talking about the book however, because there is not much there. This is not a book for adults - it belongs in the "Teen Angst" section of the library. The main character is stuck in perpetual high school mode.A character, like Cameron, who lets us know from the beginning that she is a good liar is just not believable when she goes off the rails after discovering that people have (shock!)lied to her. Her punisment of Sonia (her supposed best friend) is out of all proportion to Sonia's "crime."Leah Stewart does know how to put words together - many of her passages are quite beautiful. She has talent that is, unfortunately, wasted in chick-lit fluff.
