The Disenchantments by Nina LaCour
4.0
4.5, really. So close to a 5, but just missed it.
Why?
I think it's because it lacked a decent love interest! I'm sorry, I just didn't dig Bev. By the end, I understood her better, and felt more empathetic towards her, but I still wasn't a huge fan of hers. I simply couldn't understand WHY Colby-- dear, wonderful Colby-- was so friggin obsessed with her.
But the book itself... it was great. There was fun, creative situations and conversations and characters, and I loved that. So much.
Meg-- total awesomeness. Alexa-- a little less awesome, but not by much!
