La verdad, de entre todos los libros de esta serie, éste es el que menos me gustó hasta el momento (y encima es el más largo). De por sí, era quien menos me interesaba de todo el grupo de amigos, pero la trama tampoco es que me volvió loca (no me van mucho esas tramas de un chico va atrás de veinte chicas, por no mencionar que Roz es un poco insoportable).
Lo que más me gustó de todo, o al menos me pareció lo más interesante, fue todo el drama de los padres. Jade sigue siendo un poco meh pero me gustaron también sus "momentos de hermanos" y le dieron un poco más de trasfondo al por qué es así.

I like how this is a good example to stay true to yourself and others, don't let important things unsaid. About taking chances, opportunities that might not come again and moving on. The latter is one I have had problems with, for Mac it was to accept that he might miss out few things in London, his old home, but he can still make different but good memories in his current town which he should focus on.

A cute story based on 16yr old Mac and his quest to understand women. Picked it up for a quick lunchtime read and finished it quickly. Inoffensive and enjoyable for what it was.
