Reading Teen

When I first started reading this book I really liked it.Since Charles Benoit wrote YOU in 2nd person, it was like nothing I've read before,I absolutely loved it.I would love to find more books that are written like this.It started out great, and I started getting so excited because I thought I found an amazing book.I read a lot of reviews with people saying that it was stunning.But about half way through the book I starting thinking,"Alright, so where exactly is this story going?"I felt like the story was just kind of... Pointless.And I know its just a novel and it can be pointless if it wants to be.But I felt like this book absolutely accomplished nothing.Nothing happened.The entire book, it was just 15 year old Kyle Chase flirting with this girl he likes,sneaking beer to the park with his friends, complaining about his mom, and trying to get a job....Okay.So pretty much every single high schooler's life.Man, doesn't that sound interesting? Yes! So lets make a book out it.Alright, so now I'm getting carried away with my rant, and I think everyone knows how that can turn out to be a little messy.So besides everything I disliked about YOU,I really loved how Charles Benoit did a nice job of developing the characters,I also really liked how he captured Kyle's teenage boy thoughts so well, without making it explicit.I didn't hate YOU, I just wasn't very impressed with it.The writing was incredible, I just felt like the story could have been a little bit more interesting.Abigailehttp://ReadingTeen.net
