I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston
3.0

3.5 ~ Just like every Casey McQuiston book, I Kissed Shara Wheeler is THE book of the moment.
Just like every Casey McQuiston book, this one is a fun, fast paced, very enjoyable read.
But just like every Casey McQuiston book, I Kissed Shara Wheeler just misses that spark for me. That special touch that makes it *really* special, or touching or memorable.
I guess this time I just didn't quite care about Shara Wheeler's story, didn't get behind her character and actions. And since that's mostly all that our main character Chloe cared about, I couldn't quite get behind her either. And since those two people are the essence of this story, there wasn't much else to hang on to.
I did really appreciate the aide characters though.
