Really funny and enjoyable read. A little too much sex but whatever. I still don't understand Marcus's appeal and I hope they're not together by the end of this series.

So I started following this blog called Forever YA (for those who are a little less Y and a little more A). They have some great scientific analyses of Peeta vs. Gale.

Anywho, the Jessica Darling series kept coming up on this blog, which inspired me to go back and read it, even though it came out when I myself was still a teenager (though just barely).

What can I say? If I could dig out my own diaries from high school, I feel like they would read as if in the voice of Jessica. It was almost scary. I, too, agonized over things that didn't matter and was even more agonized that I was agonizing over things that didn't matter. I, too, was seen by my friends as a cynical brainiac, while I was completely baffled by their happiness. (I was not, however, skinny, a runner, or in love with a hot bad boy who actually talked to me.)

In terms of realism, I have to give this an A . In terms of enjoyability, it wavers between an A- and an F because it's painful for me to think too hard about my wonder years.

When I finished I immediately downloaded the second one and quickly devoured it.
