This book seemed to falter in places. I still enjoyed it a lot, but, it felt like there were times when things just sort of fell apart. It wasn't the kind of fall apart that helps the story, but rather the kind of fall apart that makes the reader wonder what exactly is going on and how it's going to be resolved.

I really enjoy the conversational style of these books. Ellie feels like a real person. Her viewpoint is accurately young girl, and I enjoy reading her mature and deal with the crazy issues she's faced with.
