I really liked it - it was an interesting read, great characters. Definitely felt long and wordy, but the writing was lovely, so that worked well for it. And it totally captured a lot of that feeling of being an angsty teenager without being a teen book. I'd recommend it, and I'm going to read something else by her next time I feel like something more "literary" than my usual chick lit stuff! :)

I liked it! I was very impressed considering it was her debut novel...I also saw the movie...which, of course, wasn't as good as the book.I was also thoroughly shocked by the ending. I really didn't see it going that way....
