I remember reading this when I was younger and liking it okay but now that I’m older? It was awful. I don’t think I liked any of the characters. If you’re a preteen or a teen you should enjoy this book but if you’re older you’re just going to find yourself rolling your eyes the entire time.

When I checked this book out of the library, I was really excited to read it because it was one of the books I wanted to read since high school - it didn't even come close to reaching my expectations. The main character, Charlotte, is annoying and superficial about popularity. She's the type of girl who wanted to do everything she can to be popular, putting on makeup, wearing the wardrobe that's in, the works. I could have looked pass Charlotte and her popularity craving but how the book was written sent me over the edge. It was written so poorly! It felt like a 14 year old wrote this.

I actually really liked this book! it was unique and fun. I can't wait to read the sequel and do a video review so I can explain a lot more. most people also might think that because the cover looks a bit "middle grade" that it's played safe, which it's not. there's bad words, bits of nudity and it mentions sex a bit which i thought was cool! I love when books push boundaries and don't play it safe. if you want to know more about this book please visit my youtube, there will be a video up soon. - Richard

Creo que ya no estoy para lecturas tan juveniles en las que la protagonista es más terca que un rábano, que desespero de páginas soportarla y soportar su egoísmo.
Le daría 2 pero Scarlet es todo lo que esta bien y que salva el libro.

I smh at people who get mad that she chokes on a gummy bear and they were expecting a serious book. Like, c'mon guys! Were you really expecting that? You can actually read her COD at the back of the book. If you're looking for serious stuff, this is not the book for you. However, if you're looking for feel-good books with applicable life lessons that tells you in a totally not boring way, this is the way to go! :bd

Not bad, not bad. Good, girly teen read. Charlotte is dying to be popular. Literally. Cute first book in a series, quick read, light and dark at the same time.

Why it has 2 stars:
The writing, and plot itself was fine. Creative, and good. The part that wasn't good was, well, most of it. The characters were SO unlikeable. I wanted Charlotte to just shut up the WHOLE time. And really, I didn't care much for Scarlet or Damen any better. Prue was the only sensible, responsible character. In /half/ the book. Which means I only liked her for /half/ the book. Then she did a few things that were completely out of character and random.
If you don't like the characters, than what the heck?!
Not tuning into this series, regrettably. If the characters had been fun--then YES I'd be reading the next one right now.

This brand new school year, Charlotte is determined to become popular and get noticed by the love of her life, Damen. However, things don't go quite as planned as she chokes to death on a gummy bear during physics class. But that doesn't stop her plans from beyond the grave. Brings back fond memories of those teenage angst years. Cute packaging too!
