I bought this book Thursday evening and read it last night and today. I couldn't put it down - I was completely enthralled! One thing I didn't like was that it seemed that there were aspects of the story-line that were either underdeveloped, like T.W. had started them and didn't know where to go w/ them, or that he later simply cut them out for whatever reason.
KillarneyRose, I agree w/ you about why wasn't Charlotte respected more for her smarts? And the Milliennial Mutants - those people really annoyed me. Just the name of their group got on my nerves.
What I was sort of anticipating was that Savannah-girl in Mr. Sparling's class (the one who "replaced" Charlotte), she was going to end up being that Lucy Paige girl (or whatever her name was) that was the president of that sorority. And that was how Charlotte was going to climb back up the social ladder, while realizing that it was okay to be smart.
I was very sad that at the end she still didn't have any girl friends. But I was surprised when she started dating Jojo - I sort of figured she'd string Adam along a little bit more.
Overall, I thought this book was pretty representative of college life, or at least the college life I experienced. It was sort of like I re-lived some of it as I was reading it, and I could totally see some of the aspects of the different characters in each of my friends (and myself!) from college.
