Do I know exactly why I read this as a sixteen-year-old girl? No, I don't. But I don't regret picking it up. This truly was an awesome, friendly adventure, and I'm sure the target audience (most definitely not me) would love it. I honestly did laugh out loud a couple of times, and I enjoyed how there was a bit of information given on what goes into making a story. One thing I did find really annoying, though, was the constant capitalization/bold print of various words. Very cute, and a fast read!
