I wanted to love this book and I wonder if I would have had I read it at sixteen. As an adult I can take it with a grain of salt and see past the underlying and probably accidental lesson.

(slight spoiler)

This girl literally is content doing nothing forever, until an interesting boy comes along and makes her long for more. Teenage girls don't need to be saved by teenage boys. Worse, real life teenage boys suck. Call me bitter but I couldn't get around the constant hopeful tone that this dream boy was everything she ever needed.

Past that, this book was interesting and still worth the read.
