About book Secret Society (2009)

(Source: I own a copy of this book.)A group of teens in Manhattan join an exclusive, secret society, one which is about to change their lives forever. For the better or worse.This book started out okay, but went downhill fairly quickly.I didn’t really like any of the characters, they were all pretty stupid at points, and didn’t seem to really understand the ramifications of joining this secret society. They seemed to quite happily go along to some random address, get a tattoo, and then take the gifts and opportunities as they presented themselves, never really wondering what would happen if things turned sour.The storyline in this sounded good, but the execution was just off. The pace was too slow, the conversations that the characters had were dull, full of info-dumps, and just generally pretty boring, and even thought I wanted to know what happened, reading this was like wading through quicksand.There wasn’t much in the way of romance, and the other storylines were all very similar, and basically revolved around how stupid these kids were to believe that they were getting something for nothing.The end took a bit of an odd little twist, but I was just glad it was over really.Overall; dull,4.5 out of 10. Ok, so once again I picked up a book where the title intrigued me. I didn't notice that it was a novel for teens. Strike one.As I read, I was horrified that there was so much underage drinking going on. Strike two.I wanted the plot to pan out, be as interesting and fresh as it seemed in the first third of the book. It didn't. There was no real substance to the novel. Strike three.I hope and pray that teens today are smarter than this, I really do. Otherwise we are all doomed.
