An account of a high school girl who is having trouble fitting in landing in something of a friendship with an idol obsessed boy in her class.

Felt somewhat Catcher in the Rye-ish to me, definitely a character study without a firm plot. I can enjoy these types of books, but I think the age of the protagonists and the (realistically) low level of introspection just didn't quite do it for me.

Language learning wise, the prose felt a bit more slippery, for lack of a better word, to fit the L31 I see it at now. I think 33-34 would fit it better, I can see people who are comfortable at L30 being frustrated by the turns of phrase in this book. Vocab stretches a little, but really nothing out of the ordinary.
