FlatOut Love eBook Jessica Park Reviews
I don't think it would be fair for me to rate this book since I couldn't continue reading beyond the sample chapters. Since I have to enter a rating, it is based on what I actually read. Maybe it gets better? All of the rave reviews must be from young adults. They probably felt flattered that an author would write a book for them that contains big words, Facebook, and lots of humorous (at their level) bantering. And not a vampire or werewolf to be found. For me, a grandmother, it was boring. The characters did not come to life for me. The main characters could have been related to Flat Finn. Julie seemed to be older than eighteen. And do teens still hide their intelligence from their peers? Maybe so.
After reading the reviews, I thought that there was no way this book would be less than excellent. I was very disappointed, and I have to comment not only about the book, but also about how exaggerated the ratings were. The book was entertaining, but there is no way that it come close to a 5 star rating. If you read these ratings, they all sound extremely similar- talking about laughing, crying and not being able to peel themselves away from the book...and it was a bit much. After reading the book and rereading the ratings I couldn't help but laugh at them.
In my opinion the book is entertaining enough but poorly written. It is very unbelievable that any of the people in this book would talk in the way that they do in real life. The main character, Julie is supposed to be 18, however she rambles on and on in such a philosophical way, it makes you think she is either much older or a character from dawson's creek. The emails , IM's and facebook messages from all characters all have the same underlying pace and tone which makes you think it is the same person writing. The secrets in this book come out in unbelievable ways and Julie's revelation at the end of the book is totally random and out of the blue.
I do not recommend this book.
I was tricked into buying this selection. It was listed under free kindle books. It's $2 that I wasn't prepared to spend. shouldn't be and doesn't need to be so sneaky with their products. Casual browsers beware!
There is a very good reason why publishers wouldnt touch this, It is terrible. The other reviewers must either be friends or relatives.
13%…I couldn't make it any farther! Is this Jessica Park's first book?! Horrible! Julie is the most annoying main character EVER!! So much so that I couldn't get through it. The pace was painfully slow, ridiculous conversation..it felt like a 6th grader wrote it. So disappointing!! I commit to my books, Ms Park...and I took valuable time to desperately try to like this book..and could hardly get it started.
Frankly, I am SHOCKED this author has not been snatched up by a major publishing house. I am even more shocked the reviews for this book are so few (but not at all surprised that almost every review was five star).
This ebook was fantastic with virtually zero flaws (even down to the grammar, spelling, punctuation). I loved the story and the characters and the author's creative use of technology as a way to further enhance the plot. It's been a loooooong time since I've read a YA book where I was as emotionally invested in the characters and the outcome as I was intellectually. The characters are incredibly three-dimensional and I was rooting for them from the get-go (especially Celeste and Matt). And how refreshing to find an author who presumes the intelligence of her readers and isn't afraid to challenge them with some truly excellent word play and smart humor.
Julie, the heroine, is wonderful and incredibly sympathetic....and, I felt, an awesome role model for young women readers. She's not perfect but she isn't afraid to take risks and admit her flaws. She grows tremendously during the story and it's a pleasure to see how much she matures from start to finish.
Like other reviewers, I am afraid to go into a lot of detail about the plot because I don't want to reveal too much. Suffice it to say it's very cleverly done and written in such a way that even if you begin to think you know what's going on, you still aren't 100% certain until a good chunk of the way in. And by that point, you are fully invested in all the characters and eager to see how things fall into place. I thought it was wonderful the way the author puts the reader in Julie's shoes so completely that when we get to the big reveal, our emotions are as complex and complicated as hers. BTW, this isn't just a tale of romance (but there's plenty of that), it's also a realistic portrait of a fractured family who are slowly, slowly emerging from a dark time and reconnecting with one another and themselves.
All I can say is even if this book doesn't sound like your cup of tea, give it a try. I suspect you will be more than pleasantly surprised.
