I really enjoyed it when I read it as a teenager but now, 10 years later I don’t really like it anymore.

Didn’t enjoy it – but strangely enough, did enjoy the film. ‘Lucky’ by the same author is much better 🙂

I found it a real page turner. Made a big impact on me although I thought the ending could have been stronger.

I started it and then gave up as I didn’t like it. Then a year or so later was stuck with nothing to read so picked it up and loved it. Worth continuing x

I slogged through it because back then I hated giving up on a book. I didn’t enjoy it, it’s not one I’d recommend.

The writing was rather poor but the story was good. Really a young adult novel.
