Before you read this book review, I want to clarify that this is just my opinion, and please do not get angry at me for feeling this way. I first was introduced to Smile by a friend and I LOVED it so obviously, I decided to read Raina's other books because I thought that if this book was excellent her other books would be too! But I was SO wrong. Smile was really meaningful to me, and I actually learned things from it. The characters were developed excellently and the story was brilliant and relatable. In Sisters, I didn't even know if a plot existed, and I learned nothing from reading this. The pace was sluggish and I could barely finish this book, but I finished it, for the sake of Smile. Next, I read Drama. The plot wasn't very interesting, unless you like mushy romance from which you don't learn anything. The characters were developed well, but I still couldn't completely understand their actions. Again, the pace was terribly slow and boring and I learned NOTHING from reading this. I moved onto Ghosts, and Guts. I don't know what motivated me to read them, but I still did. I was looking for a book that was as good as Smile but I found none. Right now, I'm starting to think that Raina is just doing this for the money because all the books after Smile aren't really meaningful. Recently, I read Guts and I was really sure that Raina is just doing this for the money. I didn't get the story. I didn't get the plot. I didn't get WHY Raina was writing this. It was just a book that wasted paper and didn't teach me anything. If this review discouraged you not to read Smile or any of Raina's books, please read them. Smile was a truly wonderful book but after that everything went downhill. For this book i would give it 2 stars, just to be nice, for the sake of Smile.Over 4 years agoinmemoryofcprliked a comment in Running Out of Time.
O.M.G. I have been trying to remember the name of this book FOREVER! I read it at least 6-7 years ago and recently (maybe in the last 2-3 years) I remembered this book - but I couldn't remember the authors name of even the name of the book - but the plot stuck out in my head! I can't wait to go to the library, I hope they have it!!Over 4 years agoinmemoryofcpr has read this book.
