About book BIG WOO: My Not-so-secret Teenage Blog (2000)
Oh my God shut this brat up. There is something about 12 year olds that irks me. Well, even if this kid ISNT 12 years old, she sure acts like it. All hyper and whiny over the internet. And to top it all off she's a BRITISH brat. I can barely handle American brats here at home, no way am I gonna read about some snot nosed pigtailed pile of slag and her "Mummy" issues.. Barf.And I created THREE -- count em -- THREE new shelves JUST for this book! Hurray? As the searingly pink cover indicates, this is a teen chick lit. Basically: Bridget Jones by a teenager on a blog with comments turned on. And that's the format, but it's also the point. Because it does touch on all aspects of internet community, the friendships, the trolls, and the weird. Obviously, the big thing that sells it is Serafina's voice, which is just perfect. In fact, she reminded me of a friend of mine. And that made it all more real for me. It can be very funny in spots, too. A great ending, which ties it all together, but leaves you wondering if there's more, and hoping for better for Serafina. This is one of the better experimental format teen books I've read recently, actually.
