This novel is about a teenage girl who is attending a boarding school. Her experiences are very typical and very relate-able. I can remember a few too many instances of awkwardness. I feel that the author portrays these instances, in such a way, that I find myself looking back and laughing at awkward moments.
Reading students blogs, many wrote about her affection for Gates. I wish she had turned out to be gay, but that's just me. I believe everyone has instances of same-sex attraction at some point in their life, just some tend to pursue it more than others :)
I related this reading to Hines in many ways. Hines believes that most is learned through experience and that problems should not be categorized by age groups. This is one view of Hines that relates most for me.
I understood everything about this reading. It was an easy read and quite thought provoking. I felt a sense of comfort knowing that someone may be just as awkward as I have been.
