3 1/2 stars -
I quite enjoyed this little book. I enjoyed the teen characters and the plot, but found some of the adults to be a bit unrealistic. I particularly struggled with the characterization of the mother in this regard. The teen angst was well done, and appropriate for the situation. This would be a good read for teens who enjoy realistic fiction. I particularly liked that the author wrote actual songs for this book, and included them in the back with the chords so we could play them out ourselves.
