The premise sounded interesting but once I started reading I was quite put off by the writing style. It reads in quite an informal tone and feels very adolescent and unpolished (I believe the main character IS a teenager, but I don't find it pleasant to read in a teenager's tone of speaking), as if an editor didn't take the time to brush it up. The main character sounds irritatingly self-conscious and volatile already, and I've only read the initial excerpt, I'm not sure I find myself particularly invested in what happens to her next. I think the cover is a bit more gratuitously bleak and goth-esque than it needs to be, too.
