So my reasons for DNFing this book the first time were valid; it was not just because of my reading mood or some other factor. This time I wasn't even enjoying the book at all. The first time reading it, I liked the first several chapters and then it started to get boring.This time, everything was b...
The problem with being a teenager is that there's a lot going on, and a lot of pressure, and a lot of decisions to make, and the highest possible stakes attached to everything. These three young women have been friends forever, and now, the summer before senior year they're splitting up for the firs...

While dominant Nina had been at leadership camp during summer break, witty Avery and shy, fragile Mel became lovers, which somehow shifted the angles of their former perfect triangle into a ...
Don't judge this book by it's frivilously colourful cover -- the story does have some substance to it.

I didn't like 13 Little Blue Envelopes because I didn't like the writing, and I didn't like the writing here much better. The characters seemed curiously flat and pretty broadly drawn. I had a hard time keeping them (ahem) straight. I couldn't find any resonance with any of the characters. I was sti...
Wow! I really liked it! This is the third book I've read by Maureen Johnson, and it was definitely my fave of her books that I've read so far; although 13 Little Blue Envelopes is a very close second, i thought parts of it were a little far-fetched. But I thought that The Bermudez Triangle was a rea...
