Favorite characters: Corrine, I guess?
When and Where the story takes place: New York City and Texas, present time
Plot in a nutshell: Because of the recession, Corrine's family becomes 'poor' and she moves to Broken Spoke Texas to stay with her grandparents until things settle.
Main characters: Corrine mostly.
What I liked best: It was cliche without being too cliche.
What I liked least: It's hard to make a very annoying non-love interest into a love interest. I'm already really not liking said guy (no names to avoid spoilers) so why does he have to get together with the main character? Because that's how the cliche goes? Also, Corrine really was a bit of a brat.
Overall rating: It was an okay read. It felt a bit disjointed at times, and Corrine's changeover from NYC bitch to okay with her surroundings was believable in that she didn't completely change. But at the same time, it seemed to happen way too fast. And I couldn't stand her 'best friend' Waverly.
