I last read this as a teenager. Most of what annoyed me then I now find charming.
I read this for school when I had to compare two texts, and actually enjoyed it. I matched it with Looking for Alibrandi. I liked this book because it showed a woman not settling for a man - and in those days it was something to talk about. I enjoyed her wit and common sense.
One of the books I did actually get around to reading for Year 12 English. I didn't love it. But I passed English.
