This is basically two books in one... you get Ashleigh's diary and Cindy's diary and one is better than the other. 

Cindy's diary was okay.. it was mediocre and I hated how nobody adressed the fact that her mother just died ... and her father married one of her teachers 2 months after that - she is angry and upset for two seconds then she just moves on and forgets about it - it was so weird. 

Aishling's diary was mildly interesting. She talks about her father leaving her mother and then constantly popping in and out of her and her sister's Alva's lives, she talks about why her mother had to marry Richard and her breaking up with her boyfriend only for him to start dating Cindy so she decides to pretend that she doesn't know him when he comes for a visit was great. 

There were some good moments in this book and it had a lot of potential - but it just fell so short... something was missing and I am not sure what it was. 

It just felt incomplete.
