A review by janecrich
Teen Idol by Meg Cabot

1.0

as far as YA goes, the romance wasn’t terrible but that’s pretty much where the good things stop. this book is basically just the sweet innocent girl next door learning how to be a b*tch to ppl and them calling it standing up for herself. the cherry on top of it all is the constant fatphobia throughout this read. oh and not to mention the line where she says her town is pretty good place to live except for the occasional “bias crime” which they shrug off because they live in indiana. would not recommend.

edit: it’s now 3am and i cant stop thinking about the incredibly irritating use of the em dash throughout the book. stop putting em dashes, writing an entire paragraph, then putting another em dash and finishing the sentence i read a paragraph ago! AGH!
