I finished this novel. I didn't intend to move so quickly it just happened. Honestly - easy, light, girl-centered read. Nothing to analyze or discuss - not layered at all. I couldn't teach it. Lots of cursing and I think the main character is just too old (17). Now, some of my 8th grade girls could relate to her but it just wouldn't be effective for an entire class.
I liked the idea that the protagonist is stuck in limbo and the reader learns about her family through flashback. That was kind of interesting. She has the coolest parents ever - but her character is not multidimensional - again a worthy read for an 8th grade girl, especially a musician. Music is a large part of the plot structure. Should we move on to Maze Runner?
