This was a book I some how did not read when I first got the review copy. In an effort to clear the backlog, I got the book from the library and read it; and here are my impressions:
Characters: I did like the characters themselves - almost everyone of them; their fears, hopes, ups and downs, the good in them and their flaws - all of that made them real and likeable
The story/idea: It was cute/sweet:
The pace: Excruciatingly weird for me - slow most of the times to make the reading of it seem like - do I need to keep reading; but the rest of it (characters and the cuteness factor kept me going.

Overall - not a series I plan to continue reading but was just ok enough that I read to the end
