well, the writing was worse than expected, the plot as predictable as i remembered the young adult fiction from my early teens. The worst part about this was that none of the characters seemed to have any personality or interests (besides an unspecific unbased interest in *art*), just hollow plot devices. The racy scenes were my only motivation to get through the endless inconsistencies and ramblings of a painfully one dimensional and frankly frustratingly stupid narrator but even those scenes proved to be unrewarding lol.

Instead, it is a dully published book, with the writing of a middle grader, and insufferable main character.
I liked the idea, though.
