Title: Lacking in every way
Review: First of all, the writing style for this book can, at best, be described as sophomoric. I also had problems with the lack of quotation marks, but that would have been fine if the book wasn't so poorly written. Blum uses hackneyed expressions and metaphors throughout the book.The story was implausible and relied on some pretty inconceivable coincidences to make it work.The characters were flat and unlikeable. I have a difficult time thinking that all college students are uninterested drones, all Minnesotans are xenophobes, and all Germans are neat. Even the main characters, Trudy and Anna, are pretty unbelievable.Save your money and time and skip this book!
