So close to a 5 star...only thing holding me back was the casualness of the sex involved sometimes....even if that may be true for many high schoolers these days.

But on to the good -- the writing! I knew I was going to enjoy it as soon as I started wanting to read out parts to my husband that made me giggle (regardless of the fact that he doesn't *really* care...;)). So witty...so hilarious...so deep...so confusing. I'm not a sports girl at all (playing sports anyways), but I read another reviewer who said she wasn't and it didn't matter and I wholeheartedly agree. This was about the characters, of which there were so many good ones in spite of their flaws. Really enjoyed it. Will definitely read more from this author b/c I loved her voice...
