I genuinely do hate it when I dislike a book -- not only because I feel like my time was somehow wasted (which is mostly my fault, especially when I realize early into the story that it's just not going to jive with my tastes), but also because I genuinely DO hate leaving negative reviews. 
 That said, I will try to be as fair and candid as possible, by starting with the fact that I am probably NOT the intended audience for Textrovert. I'm not terribly fond of cheesy love stories, I'm not a young adult, and I'm not one who typically enjoys cheese love stories about young adults. 
 So why DID I pick up Textrovert? 
 Honestly, it's all about that cover -- it's young, fun, and modern, which caught my eye and captured my attention. 
 Unfortunately, the story itself failed to do the same. 
 The basic premise is that two high schoolers inadvertently end up swapping phones and thus must connect in order to switch the phones back to their rightful owners. Shy, softspoken Keely feels emboldened by her anonymity and experiments with humor and sarcasm, while popular jock Talon hides unfavorable connections he has to Keely's family that threaten to destroy any future relationships between the two characters. Keely and Talon fall in love, encounter obstacles, and struggle to assert their true identities amongst the angst of teenage trials and tribulations. 
 The Good? -- the concept was cute and pretty creative. I enjoyed seeing the texts between the two characters, which served to break up the story with a fun and youthful format. 
 The Bad? -- I hated the characters. They were immature, flat, and hypocritical. Everything that each criticized about the other was annoyingly multiplied in their own character flaws, which neither seemed to realize or care. The dialogue between the characters felt so awkward and I felt invested in neither the characters nor their convenient story of nearly-insta-love which was ridiculously overly dramatic for no good reason. 
 Who might like this book? -- I think I would most recommend this book to very young female teenagers who are looking for a cute twist on a tired love story. 
 I did receive a copy of Textrovert for the purpose of providing an honest review. All thoughts are my own and are uninfluenced by the manner in which the work was received.
