This Bookish Endeavor

3.5 Stars.I can pretty much sum up what i loved about this book in one word:Mitch. I loved him to pieces and was super excited to read his book. Unfortunately, with as much as I loved Mitch, I really didn't like Mara. At all. I realize she had a lot of issues she was dealing with, but her wishy-washy personality and constant "uh...","um..."'s drove...me...crazy. Yes she had a wacky family, but with the exception of Billy & Billie (loved them, despite the names), they didn't feel like the kind of real, three-dimensional characters that are one of KA's trademarks. Also the repeated references to her ridiculous 'rating' system was the thing that forced me to do something I have never done before while reading a KA book; roll my eyes.So, this one was slightly disappointing for me...at least in the realm of the usual KA-awesomeness. IMO, Mitch deserved a much better leading lady.
