sweet. fluffy. 14+. accurately portrayed the typical, insecure mean girl, who is so flawed in her perfection you still connect with her. (girl who will turn into a bitter, emotionally stunted woman if she doesn't change (I'd read THAT)) the main character was likable, easily identifyable, and a good role model. the main guy was sweet, kind, and dumb in a teenaged boy kind of way. (grown men have this issue too) the conflict was his fault but not. I can see why he'd be intimidated by the beauty while unsure of the one he truly wanted. as for readers who get preachy; kids act like kids. look around at the adults in you life; they act even more immature, insecure, and their actions are ruled by both- just as our 'mean' girl in this story. overall, a very good book.
