Synopsis:
Rose Zarelli, self-proclaimed word geek and angry girl, has some confessions to make 1. I'm livid all the time. Why? My dad died. My mom barely talks. My brother abandoned us. I think I'm allowed to be irate, don't you?2. I make people furious regularly. Want an example? I kissed Jamie Forta, a badass guy who might be dating a cheerleader. She is now enraged and out for blood. Mine.
3. High school might as well be Mars. My best friend has been replaced by an alien, and I see red all the time. (Mars is red and "seeing red" means being angry—get it?)
Here are some other vocab words that describe my life: Inadequate. Insufferable. Intolerable.
(Don't know what they mean? Look them up yourself.)
My Thoughts: Confessions of An Angry Girl is a coming of age novel about a young girl in her first year of high school. She struggles with high school politics, her popularity-driven best friend, the recent death of her father and the bad-boy who she just can't seem to stay away from.
Great review, Kristal. I really liked this one -- a lot more than I thought I would! I'm excited for the sequel, though I do agree that it might have felt a bit cut off at the end. Still, it was nice to read a book that completely exceeded my expectations.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
It exceeded my expectations as well. It just startles me out of the universe when it cuts off abruptly. Thanks for the comment!
