This review and more can be found at The Book Bratz






I dislike having to write a review when I don't like a book. Those are my feelings right now. I just don't have much to say about this book. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it.

One thing that ticked me off the most was that the characters knew they were narrators. Donna even says how she will be a reliable one. I like when books change point of view, because you can see into the head of more then one character that way. But I wanted to skip over Donna's parts. The amount of times that she says "Like" I wanted to scream. She compares it to a metaphor.

I did like the plot, it was interesting and I liked the concept, but it moved way to fast. I didn't even understand half of what I read. I reread huge portions of this book. There was a lot of things in here that had nothing to do with the story. Flashbacks would get mixed up with the present story line creating a very confused Amber.

Jefferson, dude, seriously? A girl is going to try to kill you, so what are you going to do? Hook up on the train platform with her? Yeah, not really a bright idea. One minute she wants to shot your brains in, then your tearing at each others clothes. Yes, I like kissing in books. I didn't like this though. I made no complete sense.

A few things I liked about the book were the eeriness and the needing to know what was going to happen next. This was one of those books were I sat on the couch at 9pm and then suddenly it was 12am and everyone in my house had gone to bed.

Now, I am not saying not to pick up this book. My opinion is one of thousands. This books just wasn't for me. It had a pretty cover though, that is a plus.

I was doing a little research I learned that The Young World was picked up by Warner Bros to be a movie.
