Oh, E. Lockhart, I hate to say I was a bit disappointed in you. After reading your The Boyfriend List: 15 Guys, 11 Shrink Appointments, 4 Ceramic Frogs and Me, Ruby Oliver series and The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, I truly thought you could do no wrong. Let's just chalk this up to an early attempt and promise not to go back there, shall we? And honestly, I didn't hate this book. I was still pretty solid writing, unique plot and characters, and a strong protagonist voice. It just wasn't up to the standards I'd come to expect in Lockhart's writing. I didn't love the main character, Sayde. She wasn't a very sympathetic character, in my opinion. I wanted to like her more and feel bad for her, but I just really didn't. And I liked the general plot about the kids going to this theater camp. I personally love musical theater, and I spent many memorable hours in high school preparing for and performing in plays. I think I just wanted to like the main character more. So I'm going to go ahead and give this book away, and add Lockhart's other books to my library instead.
