I really wanted to like this book, the premise is great, and it sounded like it would be really funny. But it was way too reminiscent of another author I happen to adore: Louise Rennison. The tone is the same, the jokes are the same, even the diary outline of the time-stamps is the same. I couldn't keep reading once I noticed. I'm sure it will be a great book for someone who has never read The Confessions of Georgia Nicholson, but that person is not me.
