This is the sequel to "Hip to Be Square." I enjoyed it because I knew the characters from the first book. I was a little sad about some of the relationships, but it all works out in the end. I don't want to give anything away, but one of the relationships really disappointed me. I guess the person had been painted a different picture in the first book and seemed to drastically change in this book. But, overall, I liked the book, but I wouldn't read this before "Hip to Be Square."

The best way to descibe the flow of the book is choppy. The author didn't allow the reader to be in one place for too long. I felt like I was not getting enough information/detail about the current situation or characters I was reading about. I was wanting more depth to each of the chapters. I really enjoyed the book, but once finished reading I just felt like some things were left out.
