This was one of the best books ever! When I first saw the cover I fell in love. The whole book is basically about a girl, Charlie, and the major problems going on in her life--her first year in high school, making new friends, standing up to old enemies, and of course, boys. There are several boys Charlie and her friends encounter (Dylan, Will, Tyler, etc.) and they are all wonderfully developed. The only thing I did not like was the ending. It left off on an AMAZING PART! and I was dissapointed there was nothing further atfer that. But hey, maybe there will be a sequel! I can only hope! :DShow Less

I liked this book, it just felt like the intended audience was a little younger than I was expecting. The main character is a freshman in high school so I'm not sure why I was expecting a little bit more mature YA. I liked Charlie though. She's just learning who she is and how not to let people walk over her. I thought she was very brave for going to a brand new school to try and overcome what happened in the past. She handled herself extremely well for the situations she was put in. She didn't compromise herself to fit in with the "it" crowd. I liked her group of friends. They provided the comic and occasionally the voice of reason. I also felt like they acted their age. I was happy to see her make friends with someone she unintentionally hurt in the past. I did feel it was a little predictable, but not enough to make me feel like putting the book down. It had just enough drama and surprises to keep the story going. I'm intrigued to read the author's book that is the basis for the movie Mean Girls.Show Less

A nice look back at the beginning of high school
This review will be a little different since i have just graduated and moved on from the high school drama, but I really liked this book alot.
The main character of Charlotte(Charlie) is starting a new high school where she hopes she is leaving the bad karma of her old school and friends behind. But slowly she finds that she can run but she cant hide as players from her past keep dropping into her new start.
What I like about Charlie is that she takes a brave stand against things that are happening at her new school and she really makes a difference, even for a freshman.
This is a great gift to any girl who is making the jump this summer from middle school into the high school world. Looking back I totally felt the way Charlie did, I wanted to leave my old school and friends behind, but I found that I couldnt totally get away from everything and you have to face certain people to make a difference.2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Boys, Girls, and other Hazardous Materials
This book was great! I love the plot of the story and how it can relate to any teenage girl out there! It has to do with boy drama and girl drama. You can expect a great ending from the book! Read the book to find out if Will and Charlie end up together after all.

A let down
I wanted to read this book because of the interesting cover, however, from front to cover it let me down. First of all the story is written from the perspective of a freshman and I am a senior, so just ew. Next, it seems like the writer took almost the whole book except about the last ten pages to work up to the plot then solves it within those last ten pages. I guess this book could be great for a freshman, but no one older.

Terrible Writing Style
I couldn't really finish this book because the writing was so bad. It sounds like a kid is writing this book trying to sound sophisticated, but failing at it. The plot is okay but unrealistic.
