I'm not entirely sure how I ended up reading this book - it has no dragons in it. In middle school, I had an unspoken rule: no magic, no dragons? Not reading. Yet I ended up getting through this book anyway. It wasn't my favorite read. The idea of magic pants that somehow fit everyone didn't fly with me - that wasn't real magic! Some of the cliches sort of annoyed me, like the dying girl who was oh-so-smart. The rule about not being able to wash the pants didn't make sense. Wouldn't they just get smelly and gross? 
 However, I liked the switching POVs. I found Bridget's crush on her coach to be the most realistic story; it spoke to me the most maybe because I was an athlete, even though my coach-player relationships were purely platonic. I liked that the novel represented different personalities and wasn't about a super shallow, all-the-same clique of girls. 
 Overall, it's a cute, short read for teens. Adults are probably more likely to see through the childishness, but perhaps they can use it to relive their own teenage years.
