Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
What I liked: This author can WRITE. Her sense of humor is spot-on and I desperately wanted to be best friends with her characters.
What I didn't like: Her 13 year old character was more grownup than I remember being at that age. This is a common complaint for me when grownups write teenage characters, the writer gives them the ability to reason. HELLO! They're teenagers, they don't think the same way grownups do.
Final Thoughts: I enjoyed this book although I was left a little out of the loop because I couldn't remember the first book. There was a twist in the story that took me by surprise, which was a nice change. Probably not my favorite book by this author.
