There’s good things and distractingly challenging things about this book. Flaws: some of the characters particularly Dimple and Lizzie felt like caricatures rather than characters. I didn’t feel satisfied about the reasons behind their actions, mainly Dimple’s sensitive naivety and Lizzie’s needless cruelty. The cruelty of Dimple’s mother was also a bit much, sometimes distractingly so. I also didn’t feel like the main conflict of dimple’s boyfriend was treated with enough urgency or resolved in a satisfying way. For all the trouble he caused, it turned out standing up to him was a fairly simple solution. Still, this book has obvious charm. Prince and Danny were lovely characters and the familiar element was mostly heartwarming.
