camillou 's review for:
Leah on the Offbeat
by Becky Albertalli
— 3 stars —
(edit: rating this down to 3 instead of 3.5 because the more I think about it, the more I realize I actually didn't really enjoyed it enough for a higher rating)
It was an okay read.
Leah was a bit annoying at times, and I didn’t understand her super cynical (and sometimes mean, without apologizing) behavior all the time, but I liked seeing her dealing with her struggles and feelings, which was somewhat relatable. And seeing all the characters once again was nice, even though some of them felt different from the memories I had of them.
However, I guess I was expecting way more (especially with the plot, that was pretty much non-existent) and I was disappointed. I also had some issues with one particular scene and the ending felt kinda rushed...
