Victoria (Egg) is a self proclaimed oddball and dislikes everything and everyone around her, except her father and her favorite movie. She dresses as Egg, the heroine from her favorite movie, nearly every day and shuts out the rest of the world. This works in her favor until a Boy shows up.

She was a rather unlikeable character the whole way through and I found it tough to get past her constant whiny, elitist thoughts. There's a thin line between an unlikeable character and a character that's annoying to read, and I felt this crossed the line. Despite dressing as her favorite sci-fi character every day, she abhors the school's science fiction and fantasy club for being full of geeks.

I originally found this on a list of YA characters who are asexual, could be read as asexual, or books that mention asexuality, but there is no mention or confirmation of this in the book. Adding it to that list seems like desperation.

It was a short read and tough to get through, but I couldn't stand her or Max (the Boy) at any point, even at the end. The only thing that made their relationship work was that he was the only person in the book as insufferable as she was. (Let's make fun of this girl for getting a callback for a commercial. Don't you know advertising is destroying all the truth and beauty in the world?)

The writing was good and probably the only thing that kept me through to the end. I'd definitely suggest checking out more books by this author, just not this one in particular.
