I really expected to like this book more than I did. But hype is not always the best recommendation. The main character, Rachel, is just plain frustrating. I wanted to reach through the pages and throttle her. Bad choices run rampant here. Actually, the only character I really liked was Rachel's suffering roommate. I was waiting to see the movie until I had read the book, but now I'll save my time and money. I was disappointed.
