I used to read whatever and my sis had her teen novels around sometimes. It's not because of the target demographic because I read all her gossip girl books and enjoyed them but this and 50 shades are some of the worst books ever written.
Disregarding the plot, the actual writing is 8th grade level. They aren't good authors in the least and shouldn't be encouraged in any way whatsoever. Do not buy it and whatever copy you have left after satisfying your morbid curiosity, burn.
Hunger games is an other one that is complete garbage, but at least the plot made a good movie.
I disagree with the Hunger Games bit... Any possible chance you mean Divergent or one of the other dystopian novels of the time? I'm not pretending it's the best thing on the planet, but the Hunger Games is well and beyond 8th grade writing and is objectively decent writing, plot holes or no.
