The book started off all right, with some intriguing insights about "digital" school (as well as to the direction of some schools, now), reliance on technology, the importance of human interaction, and kids' attitudes about school and social interaction, but it doesn't go very far. Not too far into the story, our main character gets stale, and what few changes she does (seem to) experience, are predictable. Moreover, for a story whose main plot points hinge on the importance and dynamics of interaction with other people, the interactions in the book aren't that special. This is especially true of the predictable romance in the story, which has no real basis (aside from, perhaps, convenience) and as such, very little chemistry at all.
