Bye, Beautiful by Julia Lawrinson

1.0

I have many issues with Bye Beautiful, namely the characterisation of Sandy. She's fourteen years old, yet she deals with most situations throughout the book with the outlook of a small child. She seems incapable of making decisions and is seen as weak under pressure. This would have been alright if her character had evolved but I didn't see any character progression throughout the book.

Also, the ending to me seemed clunky and unexplained, and totally strayed from the characters. It failed to tie in some of the issues in the book.

This is a book I will never read again, and if I had been given a choice, would not have read in the first place.
