Never Have I Ever

"When I first picked up this book, I read the first chapter or two and I was dying to read more. I could relate so well to Katie, myself being in my mid-twenties and never having dated. I was looking forward to an honest look at what it means to be single and how hard it is to navigate the dating world as a single girl. I was looking forward to reading about a girl I could to relate.<br/><br/>I wish it had been that for me. I wish that the book had kept my attention. It took me five months to finally finish this book. I would keep coming back to it, hoping it would get better once she reached high school or college. Sadly, it peaked in the early chapters. It is hard to read a book that is nothing more than a recount of every boy that she has ever liked. There is only so many times I can read the same plot line over and over in a book before I get extremely bored. <br/><br/>Although the author was honest about her experiences, I did find her a bit whiney and hard to relate to. It appeared to me that she was and still is rather obsessed with the idea of finding of guy to date, even though she claims at the end that she's not. The book does have a decent message of how important it is to just be yourself so I guess my time wasn't completely wasted."
