Review: This book wasn't too bad. Cute and original, I liked the characters, (especially Victoria) and the plot. The writing style wasn't too bad but the ending was abrupt and kind of silly. It seems a little more realistic than what would happen in other fiction, though, so I'll giev it that. I love the idea though and it was done pretty well. I wouldn't mind reading a few other books with a similar plot. Definitely recommend.
Worst part: The ending. Well, how things were resolved.
Best part: The plot was super original. Never seen anything quite like it.
Grade: B
