I really wanted to like this book. I did not. I could not stand either one of these sisters, until there were maybe 10 pages left in the book. By then it was way too late. The author just did not do a good job of making either of the girls a character one would sympathize with at all! In fact, there were moments where I disliked each of them so severely that I wanted to throw my book across the room. (I couldn't, because I read it on my nook!) Their friend Mule was the only redeeming character for me, but it wasn't enough to make me like this book. This book was alright, I did not enjoy this book but I did not hate it either. I could not connect to the characters or the story. None of it was convincing and I saw a lot of the plot twists coming. I felt the biggest weakness of this book was that the characters were two dimensional there was the serious mother, the unrealiable father, the serious older sister, the dreamer younger one and the reliable best friend. This book had a lot of potiential if the author made the characters more real. They were sterotypical characters, I did like that the sisters learned to get along. However, I would of enjoyed it more if the author took risks with the character so they no longer fit into sterotypes. Its not a bad book to read if you want to read one quickly over the weekend.
