Funny read and look into the mind of a freshman at college. However nothing was ever resolved and the character ended up in the same place as she started. She did have small growth, but I didn't feel any triumph for her or her experience in her first year at college. Kind of disappointed in the ending.

Penelope is the story of a very awkward Harvard freshman and what goes on at her first year at school. The book is very funny and even though you cringe at some of the things that Penelope says and does, you love her. I read this book in 2 days - really enjoyed it.
