The main reason why this book didn't get a higher rating is because I can't stand characters that sit around and do nothing. I know this girl had some issues at home but she's in a new place now. Why can't she stand up for herself? She just lets everyone walk all over her and that drives me crazy. The plot of this book wasn't bad though. Her mom beats her so she goes and stays with some friends for a while. She doesn't fit in though so the story is about her trying to fit into the popular crew. Finally near the end she actually stands up for someone, not herself though, and makes me feel a little better about her. Not my favourite book though.
