Reader Reviews
I must admit that my enthusiasm for this series initially derived from the enthusiasm that Tia expressed about it on her blog! So I went into the first book knowing that Tia intended it for teens and adults alike, and I really enjoyed reading it. Even though it's focused on teens, there was never a point at which I wanted to put it down. Maybe because I have Tangie's hair, maybe because when I get a blow out, I too worry about sweating out my roots! But there are many things that adults can relate to in this series, so it just works. Tia, true to all her writing , stays engaging in Sixteen Candles, like in It Chicks. This is a very quick and fun read. The characters continue to develop and become more 'real' than in the first book. But why was I listening to Mariah Carey during the CJ - Tangie scene at the end of the book, so I teared up!!!!!!?? (had to laugh at myself on that one) The only problem here is that it seems that the copy editors spaced out periodically through the book... Or did they?? For example, at the end, a new character is first introduced as Corey then later referred to by a different name... But maybe that's just to make sure you read the third book... Can't wait!
