I'm not sure about this book if I'm being honest. It was good, but it wasn't that good. It was pretty basic. I enjoyed it but I felt like I was reading it just for the sake of it, not because I was invested in it. It was a very strange feeling.
The characters are quite annoying, especially Jimmy. He came across as very selfish. His best friend moves to a new school and he rarely sees her, so the day she can come visit him he invites all his new friends along? That's rude. If one of my friend's did that I'd turn right back round and leave. Rude.
If I was to recommend this book to anyone, it'd be 13-16 year olds. I feel like past that point you're too disconnected from teenage drama to love this book. But anyone of those ages would probably love it. To be honest it was a bit of a fail on my part to request this really, I'm 20 after all, I can barely remember what school drama was like. Perhaps it's time to hang up the YA and move onto mature books!...Or you know, not.
I gave this book 2 stars on Goodreads.
