I am so behind on my reviews it'snot even funny. I am going to do a review a night until I am caught up...lol SO on with the review...

I wish I had good things to say about this book but there just aren't many. They said it was humorous and I think I chuckled once. It was just so bizarre the whole premise of the book. This was one of those times I wished I would have read the synopsis of the book. I am not sure I would have picked it up.

4 girls in love with a boy band and they manage to find one

For a girl who's been obsessed with boy bands for 30 years, this book was hysterical. From a fan girl's perspective the lingo and motivation to get neurotic over cute boys in coordinated outfits who can sing and dance (a little) is spot on.
Four friends...fan girls....kidnap a member of their favorite band The Ruperts....craziness ensues and some girls may actually go "crazy." I laughed lots...and realized I'm crazy for being a fan girl too...but it probably won't stop me in the future.

Fun stuff! I was pleasantly surprised because even though I had heard good things, I wasn't sure this was going to be my kind of party. The plot is deliciously dark and funny, the writing is sharp and if you're not a fan of boy bands, then it will confirm what you already think of them. ...more
