Partying, alcohol, drugs, attraction and sex
After I'd heard so many awesome things about this book, I was sure that I would enjoy it.
But I didn't.
I just wasn't like this as a teen. I was a different kind of crazy, not the festival and holidays abroad type. I found it difficult to relate to the characters.
It made me realise that I'm getting pretty sick of reading about money, even if there was a token plea by Lucy that her Gran didn't have much money, yet still got her a Tiffany's necklace.
What really, really got to me was the "AAB is bad thing" thing. Sam was a failure because he only got AAB in his A Levels. He just got nearly perfect freaking grades. Cry me a freaking river.
Saying that, the narrators did a terrific job with this!
