Unlovely was okay... The premise and the cover pulled me in, but all the darkness I expected just wasn't there. It was a story filled with mystery and intrigue, but lacked the character connection that I craved. The romance seemed distant and the horror aspect was a tad far fetched. I kept reading in hopes of a wow ending, but it was nothing like I expected. It was meh and weak. The intense build up was definitely short lived. I wouldn't recommend this book unless you are looking for a filler read to pass time.… (altro)

This is a book I feel every child needs to read especially in their pre teens. This book explains what the media presents as ideal looks for men and women. The book explains the media's effects on teens such as eating disorders. In all reality, digital artists can change the picture by using an image editing program on the computer. This changes the looks of the celebrities to enhance color, weight loss, and perfectly glowing skin!

Tessa’s life changed when her family moved to Argentina. She met her new friends and fell in love with Lucient, the son of a French diplomat. Lucient changed as he went back from a trip from Rome with his mother. Tessa then learned that Lucient had an illness – mental illness. Soon, Lucient started to push Tessa away from his life without any explanation. Then Tessa found out why Lucient did that, and everything wasn’t the same. This book was probably about a young girl who had to face a few changes in her life. She started to hang around with the wrong people and fell in love with someone who is a bad influence to her.

I’m not sure what to say of this book. The writing was alright. Sadly, the plot was not. The beginning of the book was quite confusing. I wasn’t sure of what was happening to Tessa and her friends. The middle was a bit slow. But I can’t stop reading it because I expect something to happen. And it was towards the end when there’s finally something. It was really frustrating when a writer stashed everything important towards the ending.
