The description makes this book sound like high school dramatics, and in a way it is. But the reason I love this book is because the main character breaks away from becoming the person his father is training (intentionally or not) him to be. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies, The Breakfast Club.

Honestly, I kind of felt bored reading this. I love her work, but I'm not a fan of books about teen parties and pushy fathers, at least not in the somewhat cliche manner that shows up in this book. I think Anderson has a knack at writing, but I preferred her quirkier and more original "Speak" and "Catalyst."
