I'm not much of a fan of bizarre writing habits like the hyphenated phrases and things like striked out words. It can work sometimes but most times I get really distracted by that stuff. Ryan sounds like a really well written character though as far as him being realistic.

It seems like it would be a nice change to get a guys perspective since most books are geared toward us girls but it would still have to be interesting. I don't think I would be interested in a teenage boys inner sex/hot girl monolog.

And the cover kind of made me cringe, maybe it's just a bit young, being about a 14 year old?? Pity the writing's just so-so.That really sucks.

See, this is the problem with YA--sometimes you read a blurb about a 14 y.o. guy, and the 14 y.o. guy and the book are AMAZING. Then there are the times (like this one) where what you get is a real life 14 y.o. guy. Albeit a funnier than average 14 y.o guy, but still. I'm sorry this was disappointing, but I appreciate your honestly ;)<br /><br />Jessica @ <b><a href="http://rabidreads.ca/2014/05/review-dreams-and-shadows.html" rel="nofollow">Rabid Reads</a></b>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988042844960743101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560140880578824032.post-13848550396768513632014-05-05T06:41:20.845-04:002014-05-05T06:41:20.845-04:00Sounds like a quirky guy who at least thinks reali...Sounds like a quirky guy who at least thinks realistically, and at least gives us a male perspective.
