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!

Premýšľala som nad tým, ako by som ohodnotila túto knihu.
Pripadá mi to tak, že sa autorka nevedela rozhodnúť o čom vlastne chce písať - akej téme/problematike by sa chcela venovať.
Väčšina časť knihy mi prišla ako satira, ale niektoré strany na mňa pôsobila trošku serióznejšie. Hlavne text pri každej kapitole. A to sa mi k príbehu vôbec nehodilo.
Niektoré časti deja mi nedávali zmysel - resp. v knihe sa objavovali mnohé cliché.
K postavám by som povedala toto - väčšina z nich mi liezla na nervy. Väčšinou sympatizujem s hlavnou postavou v knihe, ale Charlotte Usherovú (hlavnú protagonistku) som si neobľúbila. To som si skôr obľúbila Scarlett.
No ...
Páčil sa mi ale zovňajšok knihy. Škoda, že vnútrajšok nebol zaujímavejší.
