13 Little Blue Envelopes (Little Blue Envelope, #1)

Unimpressive. The way Johnson writes is annoying; more than halfway into the book, I really didn't know ANYTHING about the main character, other than that she was on a (ridiculous) journey. It was all action and no thought. It was not insightful. The main character was not likeable. She wasn't unlikeable either. She was just like...doing things. She didn't have very many thoughts. And never very insightful ones (ie "I like this boy! I am sad. I am happy. I am angry"). COME ON. There was no attempt made to make her a human, a believable character. Also the end was frustrating but kind of oddly moving (a little) at the same time. But overall, I was not in any way impressed.

Thank you for describing it in a way that I couldn't. I didn't like it either but I couldn't say why.

Atleast you finished the book; I couldn't even do that. I got to page 100 and put it back on my bookshelf. What a waste of time!!!!Maybe I'll pick it up and try to read it again in the future, but it'll probably just make me mad trying to read it again. Man I was so disappointed too because I had real high hopes and promise for this book. Oh well....on to the next I guess.
oh my gosh, yes! the sentences are so choppy too, i couldn't stand it.
I completely disagree.
Wow, fascinating argument, Courtney!
I looked this book up on Amazon when I found it (Amazon let's you read 1st few chapters of books),read the first chapter and though.....Nahhh........this is way too boring!
Exactly!
So no one thought this was similar to ps I love you?
